Unputdownable

Makes you miss your subway stop

Causes you to weep in public venues

Topographically varied, but chronologically nonlinear

Treatment-resistant

Long

Part of a trilogy

Assigned to me in high school but I didn’t understand it

Assigned to me again in college and I understood it a little more but not really

Tedious when you try to explain it to someone else but inexplicably compelling to me

Impressively blurbed

Undermarketed

The outside cover is just a woman doing nothing with eyeliner on

Something you can’t share with your mother because it will make her sad

Dystopian but not in the way people always think it is, like more layered, a bit like Orwell, but different somehow

Actually just an Orwell knockoff
