Interesting concept, but not my cup of tea. ( )Ressenya escrita per a Crítics Matiners de LibraryThing . I thoroughly enjoyed this book! There were a (very) few typos, but they did not get in the way of building this dystopian world in my imagination. This book is perfect for anyone who, like me, loves a low-key love story set in an apocalyptic and/or dystopian time and place. I was ecstatic then heartbroken for Leah as she navigates the terrain. I’m left with questions and hope to get to read the next in this series, too!Ressenya escrita per a Crítics Matiners de LibraryThing . The Corporation or the Collective, to opt-in or opt-out, New Town or Old Town, are some of the choices facing Abel and Leah in this dystopian novel of the near future. The two teenagers are confronted with the quick and final judgment if you vary from what is expected of you as normal behavior. They are expected to attend church services, which turn out to be nothing more than Las Vegas-like entertainment. They can’t very in voice patterns, movements, or speech without incurring the suspicion of the AI. The AI interprets these things and can summarily pass judgment on the individual who deviates from the expected without human intervention. Their families are high up in the corporation, so they are watched more closely. The two eventually conspire to escape the rigidity of New Town to somewhere in Old Town, which still has a semblance of the old way before the corporation took over.There are some interesting side plots, and as the story unfolds, the history of why the corporation is in power with no government oversight. It is an exciting read and I would recommend it to any. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
