Just starting this.
From the blurb it sounds interesting.

At first glance, it doesn't look like the type of book I'd usually read. Inspired by The Canterbury Tales, though, which I like!

Not what I usually read either but it was highly recommended to me. Something out of the norm for a change.

I was given it as a present but I couldn't get into it.

I missed this post the first time round - don't know how.
It sounds a bit Orwellian (1984) and extreme, but interesting. I might try it if I come across it!
