This book opens with a rather terrifying scene, and it doesnt really stop throughout the entire story. And I will admit that I have mixed feelings about it not because its bad, but because its a future I can honestly see humanity succumbing to. The book itself is pretty good, it makes me think, and I dont think Ill ever complain about that.

I havent really read other dystopian novels, frankly Im not terribly interested in seeing the wretchedness I know we as people are capable of, and that I believe we are only a few generations away from. In this world, women seem to mostly be viewed as disposable, valued only for their ability to bear children which sounds sadly like the sort of life women had in the not so distant past.
