This was terrific! I couldn’t put it down.

It is incredibly poignant and had a similar reading experience as The Handmaids Tale. Would recommend for anyone who enjoys dystopian reads.

I will immediately look for other books by this author.

My only complaint is Frankenstein (my favorite character) reading the book to Riley. I can’t understand how he could read given his history.

A futuristic, sci fi take on misogyny and the wholesale abuse of the powerless. Riley has been arrested and sent to a “reeducation center” under the guise of a new defense act. As long as people in these reeducation centers dissents against the government, they will be held in what is more like Victorian mental asylum. They will only be released when they have been “corrected and converted “. Riley, however, will have none of it and begins a dangerous game to take down the whole system. This terrifying story cuts a little too close to the reality of life in America for women with a government run by republicans and old white men
