I love sci-fi and i went into this thinking it was gonna be great. This is the most insufferable book ive ever read. Being eloquent and overbearing isnt impressive at all to me, the first half of the book almost gave me a stroke.
The idea is a really horrific thing to think about which is why people love this book and i get why. The things it makes you think about after each chapter was way more fun than actually reading it but i guess thats worth something.
Ok, im revisiting this review...i think about this book all the time and I realize now how necessary the insufferable vocabulary of this book really was. It created such a sterile enviroment that played into the disconect you feel when you read it. They took a normal man based on our reality and viewed him as a savage until he actually turned into one. This book does its job well and honestly feels like a horror novel at this point, there is so much that goes into being human. The sacrifice and loss that makes you appreciate everything more, all of it gets ripped away in this society and you're left with humans that are conditioned to operate like robots. Thats what makes it so scary, its not like they are robots, they are just trained to operate like them, their humanity still exists but its normal to not express it.
