What a strange and unusual book!

I do appreciate the ending. It almost fell into my perpetual complaint of the trap of dystopias, that it tried to solve the dystopia, but the ending was quite realistic and in line with all of the characters' desires and goals, and I very much respected that.

This also made sense as a dystopia--there was a touch of magical realism that meant I could buy that part and suspend my disbelief--but I wish it had explained more early on. I did love the economics of it all, and the motivating factors behind getting people on later lives, but I wished it was better explained earlier on instead of taken entirely for granted.

I also think there was missed opportunities for religion and philosophy, but there was already enough going on.

This was a pretty good read. A very different concept. I felt it lacked development a bit, so I wasn't really invested in any of the characters. That said, I did find it an enjoyable, fast read.

Interesting premise: the higher the number of suicides, the more benefits you get in society. However, something is going wrong with the reborn.

I would give this 3.75, yes I am being that picky. It wasn't quite a 4 star for me, but I did really enjoy it. I don't feel like I need to summarize anything on here because you can just read the synopsis and I don't want to spoil anything.
