I am baffled. It seems like I am not "in" on what everyone Katherine is writing to already knows.

Who are the donors and what are they there for? What are guardians? What is this weird place where bullying and nosiness seems so pervasive? It is an unsettling first few chapters.

Is the writer trying to make us feel what Tommy must be feeling?

It’s a first time read for me! So excited to dig in, I’ve been putting this one off for a while. Extra excited about the POV takeaways, too, since my own novel-in-progress uses a similar point of telling retrospective narration.
