So.... first off thank you bookishfirst for an ARC copy of this book.

I was so excited about this book! When reading the first look and synopsis I was expecting a hunger games-esk/Red Rising type book.

These Martian kids forced to move back home to Mars after living on earth for years?

But no this book was about politics heavy politics - utopia vs consumerism and the struggles and challenges the main characters faced.

I had to put down the book and picked up the audio ARC from scribd (thank you!) to finish this huge book.

I am always here for a space book with fighting against the man - and I guess this book had that it was way to real politics and not entertaining omg did that just happen type fight against the ‘man’

I didn’t hate this book, it was beautifully written It just wasn’t what the first chapters I got a view of seemed to promise.
