I realize many of my reviews are some variation of 'OMG I'm obsessed', but certz this time it's beyondish true! The language is DIVINE! I am absolute trash for linguistic changes in stories set in the future. And Andra says it best, "Words were alive." The way Johnson uses language to differentiate the characters is spectacular and the tension and secrets and mystery are decadent. I've already pre-ordered because this is one book I refuse to miss.
