I'm reading it this time with my teacher hat on... I would LOVE to teach this book to my students. I could say "inflict", I'm sure many students will see it like that. But to me, this book is just full of AWESOME. 
 I love the layers. The conversational narrative. 
 I love the plays on language. The exploration of language. 
 I love the way that this book feels scarily real - this society could happen. The events that play out in this book could happen. It feels like it could be real. 
 I love the way this book makes you think. Is our society now so crash hot? How would you respond if this happened to you? Would you just go with the flow? TV/Movies says no. History says yes. 
 There is so much to talk about with this book, from the start to the end.
