I think I need to accept the author isn't for me as I had the same issues with this novel that I did with "Terra Nullius"

- Writing style that just doesn't engage my brain. Cannot explain it, but the writing style just does nothing for me, and I find it hard to focus when reading it. And also overuse of cliches when describing thoughts/feelings. 

- Lack of character development / very one dimensional characters which leads to me just simply not... caring

- Heavy reliance on a plot twist as a writing device, but lack of originality in dystopian themes. Making it predicable and kind of underwhelming

- More just related to this one but I found a few scenes kinda cringe. The melbourne praise + Halal snack pack moment really

A shame because I want to love this author, hence giving her a second try, but it just didn't work for me
