This was a very fun read in my opinion. The color based dystopia, and I love a good dystopia, is masterfully crafted. The absurdity of it and the way people live and act in it is pretty good. The spoon shortage and other things aren't that far removed from the truth, as at the end of the Soviet Union plastic shopping bags, chewing gum and other deficit items from the West were venerated and coveted here.

More fun than the color based dystopia in Red Rising and with better characters, in my opinion.

Thanks, whoever talked about it a few threads ago.
Any other good books from the same author?
