"Unlike far too many novels, this one will make you think, make you uncomfortable, and then make you reread it .... " C. Osborne moonspeaker.ca

"I bought this today and just finished reading it (I couldn't stop btw). It's amazing, powerful, sad, devastating, funny, angering ... and I wish everyone could read it." Anonymous by request

"... a powerful and introspective dystopia .... It is a book I truly recommend for a book club as the discussions could be endless .... " Mesca Elin, Psychochromatic Redemption

"Tittle's book hits you hard .... " D. Sohi, Goodreads

"I read this book from cover to cover in one afternoon, pulled inexorably along by the readable style and careful pacing. I then spent a long time staring at a wall, recovering from the free-fall, hurtling journey, coming to the conclusion that this book must be read." Shefali Sequeira, 4w

"I absolutely enjoyed it. There were times when I was thinking 'There's no way this would happen,' but then I'd check the references at the back and sure enough there it was." Sarah Rean
