It was hard to tell when this book was published from the writing. In some respects, it seemed really dated (eg. references to use of paper in a future with AI-powered androids and the sexism) and yet there are emotional complexities in a cast of characters who are almost universally loathsome. It makes sense that it was published in 2008.
I don't think this is a spoiler, but I kind of love the fact that when I finished the book I was convinced that humans are extinct (except maybe the specials) and everyone is an android.
I can see why this book has such popularity although it's, stylistically, not my cup of tea.
