I asked my know-it-all (I love her) friend and she told me, so I&#8217;ve been wanting to read it and subsequently see the movie. In Canada, I was at a bookstore and decided to purchase the book!<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><\/span><br \/>\n<!-- more --><span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The Plot:<\/span>&nbsp;The opening line had me and this plot was not as I expected since it went into so many POVs as it was written in omniscient. It was a fun exploration of this crazy far in the future world and it ended in a way I completely didn&#8217;t expect. It was definitely a wild ride that kept me wanting to read more.&nbsp;<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The Characters:<\/span> The main character, Tom, was kind of the typical blank character, so I was more interested in characters like Catherine, Shrike, Valentine, and Hester. But it was overall a fun cast of diverse characters. The museum curators were fun and quirky and Anna Fang is just plain epic. Chrysler Peavey was just so crazy I laughed. The one thing that bothered me was that some people were left behind to die and not even the main characters seemed remorseful about it.&nbsp;<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The Setting: <\/span>If you haven&#8217;t caught on yet, half of why I want to read or watch something is because I love the worldbuilding and this book has insane worldbuilding. I mean towns that eat each other? It&#8217;s nuts but brilliant. I also really dig any book that has zeplins.&nbsp;<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span><br \/>\n <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Epic Things: <\/span>Moving almost sentient towns are awesome enough. The idea of stalkers, resurrected mechanical men are morbidly fascinating.

Things that May Seem Normal Now May Be Strange in the Future &#8211; <\/b>This may seem like an obvious thing but sometimes it can be forgotten.
