Shelves: classics, psychology-socialogy, sci-fi, political-stuff
The initial section of the book was eerily similar to the 2016 election and the burgeoning Trump presidency. The middle and latter portions were extraordinarily well-written and very engaging. This is a book that should be included in the classics of distopian fiction, as I think it will have more of an impact than 1984 for most Americans.

Shelves: did-not-finish, classics
The concept was incredible, and strikingly similar to current political events, but god was this a boring book
