so strange and unique but fantastic.
a sci fi that can be read just to have a unique dystopian sci fi read or it can be read with a lot more meaning and intention of what it could mean in broader ways -from taken over land and humans (especially white ones) taken resources and other things they want, not caring about anything else.
the writing is fitting to the story and as strange but well done and while the plot could be clearer and more direct it still works.
the characters took me a little while to get used to but they never felt underdeveloped or unrealistic. so well done there too.
overall? this was a surprising find for me -i had never heard about this book or the author before seeing this and just reading it and enjoying it a lot.
and i think it might be best to not know what this book is about and just go in and see where the story takes you.
