Outrageous in the most Starship Troopers look-over-there-just-pretend-this-is-science way, this is a fun adventure. I love that the main characters are all older people; it adds depth that the story really needs.

This is an Idea Book, but it's not a novel. The characters are all just paper dolls for Ng to move around in her almost-dystopian-but-frighteningly-realistic world. It was a chore to read.

Nothing groundbreaking and the format was a little slapdash, but it has lots of lovely and important life advice.

Unbelievably dull and aimless.
