I really enjoyed the concept of the marriage act and what that would look like for the people involved. It brought up some good topics on how the government will find a way to control people and keep people segregated. It also showed how people would be willing to take advantage of the marriage act and learn how to cheat the system. The were some interesting characters in this one and I liked that some were very unlikeable. However, although we are following five main characters, there were lots of side characters that were involved and at times it was hard to keep track of everyone. I do think that by the end of the story it felt very rushed and lots of information was just thrown at us. The book is kind of long but I wished at the end it would have taken its time to wrap everything up. This isn't my favorite by this author but I enjoyed it enough to recommend, especially the audiobook which this author knows how to do well!
