(view spoiler)[Personally I'm inclined to believe the final letter. I don't trust that Jeremy guy at all. I didn't think the manuscript was a true story from the start, I thought it was a draft for her next book--the narrator repeats several times that the book series is written from the villain's POV. I find it quite believable that it was a writing exercise. (hide spoiler)]

Reading the part of the book about the elections was like going through that referendum again. Trust me, Tracey Mathias got it 100% right. The second half of the book it is more of a thriller than a dystopia; I'd say it's a YA dystopian thriller. (Power cuts occur from time to time and everyone is required to carry an ID). It gets really, really tense.
