I liked the beginning, and the look at the brutal world where humans are meat. It had some really strong and nasty imagery, especially in the chapters of touring the facility. This was very black mirror, and I think would do better in a show format. I could not get into the writing style at all. It took me awhile to understand who was narrating, and there were too many characters. I considered DNF'ing, but wanted to get to the big twist, which was bleak, but sort of predictable. I'm sad because I've been looking forward to this for a long time, it just didn't do it for me.
