Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
“My name is Will. I’m a Westie. I live in Zone F. My corporation account is in credit.”
It’s hard to know where to start with this review, much less what to say without spoiling the book. My rating is a 2.5, which could teeter more towards 3 stars.
First, Rijswijk’s writing is actually fantastic. They do a good job of world-building. Despite the very good writing, this book has minimal redeeming plot qualities. If you’ve read my reviews before, then you know that character growth is extremely important to me. Will consistently makes choices to save his own skin, and this doesn’t change even at the end. I wanted more for Will, and I wanted Will to do more for the society he lived in.
The content in this book is dark, and would most certainly be triggering for others. You never get a break from this content. This made it a touch difficult to get through.
My full review will be out July 12th, 2021
