It was my first novel by Nancy kress though I heard the name in some recommendations. I had quite bigexpectations to this one, but unfortuately I didn't much like the novel. While the whole concept of a book is great, for such a short story it was too much tell and too little show for me. First few chapter are most a lot of information throwing at us with not much happening. And there were flashbacks chapters that could be reduced to lesser amount in my opinion.

I expected something fast-paced with a lot of future theory and there are some interesting question asked, but all is overwhelmed but a lot of words and details that not good for a book that is not even 200 pages long.
