It's very well written, with beautiful descriptions. Many of the characters have great depth and some difficult emotions like grief and anger are explored well. 

However there wasn't enough background and context for me. I wanted to discover more detail about what being 'defective' meant, what would happen to them after they got sick. 

It's good if you're looking for a romance with a mysterious/ominous vibe. However I don't think the dysopian aspect is very strong and I prefer it when mysteries are actually revealed.
