It’s ingrained in everyone, isn’t it? Everyone wants to cheat, but it’s whether you’ve got a good enough reason to do it.” How willing we are to give up everything and anyone we hold dear on the suggestion there might be something better around the corner.” “I also wanted to demonstrate how greedy we are as human beings. And sometimes we just need to take a gamble and hope for the best.”

I loved the ending, it was logical and made complete sense to me. But the book also makes you think about a world where technology overpowers love and instinct. We can feel their pain, anxiety and anger.

Over the past few months, I kept collecting books on Kindle and didn’t read a single page.
