This book has me a little confused. I like the premise of the book. It is written from multiple perspectives which I always enjoy better than a singular perspective. Also there was a gay character which is always a plus, (unless is the ???bury your gays??? kind). I really like the concept of Burners, the way they kind of say ???fuck society, we die how me want??? which I can definitely relate to. I also really liked the way the story called for many metaphors with double meanings. And even though Amit was a very small character the fact that he lost his taste really touched me. It was though the only thing in the whole book that really touched me at all.
I did feel like something in the book where very lazy. Some stories that where written as summarises that I would way rather have read fully written out, or just Deus Ex Machina of the letter literally telling them everything they need to know. The book also repeats many things, like a summary of the events that have happened. Which I found very annoying, because I had read all that already, so I know. I also felt like the whole system of these rebirths weren???t really that well thought out or explained. I didn???t really understand that whole thing with the money and the subsidies and how it all meant the would lose the house. It wasn???t really explained well enough in my opinion. Just like the retrograde didn???t really make sense to me. How and when it all would happen, which made the whole thing with Molly kind of weird.
I did like the book, I felt it lacking in some area???s but overall reading it was very enjoyable.
