Reviews with content warning for Infidelity - Vox

A quick, gripping read that’s a challenging portrait of a not-to outlandish dystopian future. I felt for all of the buildup the ending felt a bit rushed but overall it was a great read.

4.0

I had a feeling I'd love this book and I really did. The only reason it's 4 stars rather than 5 is because I did find it to (ironically) be quite sexist towards men. I understand that the women in the book are actively being oppressed by men, but the main character seems to also have serious perceptions. Men shouldn't rule the world, but they should also be manly and be ready to fight people to protect others?

I enjoyed the plot, and I enjoyed the characters. There were definitely some elements that the author could have done with checking with medical / scientific professionals before writing about them though (e.g. a catheter isn't something that goes into your veins, it is what goes into your bladder).

I loved the concept of this book and it was pretty gripping once the plot was moving. However, I was disappointed with the rushed ending and lack of detail

5.0

I love when a book makes me think and makes me feel something. That’s what this book is, it shows you the short path between women’s rights being slowly taken away until we are eventually silenced. I know it’s a dystopian book and it might be seen as silly to take it that seriously but it hits pretty close to home if you are paying attention to your surroundings.

3.0

I felt this was an interesting concept, but poorly explored. The science was a little far fetched and the ending felt very chaotic and unclear at times.

I was also keen to see how the story would develop in terms of deradicalising a family member from a harmful ideology but this never materialised and it was just assumed the character changed their whole world view overnight.
