I remember liking this book more as a youth, but now the characters seem too stratified.

Poetry and prose lightly wrapped up in a bit of sci-fi. Fun!

Nice palette cleanser after all these grim-dark fantasy books. A fun story, low stakes and comfy.

Was closer to a 3.5 stars.

Sort of unsatisfied with the ending, seemed like it was cut way short and just wedged in. Honestly was hoping for a few more books about the other silos.

There was a lot of unexplained stuff
- why did the nano threats die off outside of the field of silos?
- how were the nano threats maintaining just around the silos?
- what was up with the amount of twins from silo 17?
- what happened to the silo 40 and the silo's around it that “went dark”?
- Was Donald getting better? why?


Looks like there are other series about this world, which might answer my questions, will see if they are available at the library.

The version I read was really 3 different collection of writings kinda merged together. The first collection which I believe was aimed towards a young family member was more impactful to me. Still a fun quick read.
