Description:Deep underground, thirty-nine women live imprisoned in a cage. Watched over by guards, the women have no memory of how they got there, no notion of time, and only a vague recollection of their lives before.
As the burn of electric light merges day into night and numberless years pass, a young girl—the fortieth prisoner—sits alone and outcast in the corner. Soon she will show herself to be the key to the others' escape and survival in the strange world that awaits them above ground.

y’all i have no idea what this book is about or if it’s good BUT FK IT WE BALL so let’s go on the spontaneous adventure together
i picked this up at barnes & noble a long time ago so it’s time!!!! it’s also very short which is nice :^)
also!!
do you prefer to have my threads of chapter discussions or meeting times in the spoiler community chat? lmk <3
because it’s only 172 pages i lowkey feel like we can try to just have 1 overall discussion in 2 weeks…?! THOUGHTS?

I loooooooooooooooooved this book. I am SO EXCITED to see the discussions and read everyone’s thoughts. It’s a very non-traditional book and brings up a lot of interesting topics despite its small page count. I recommend two discussions because there’s a lot to think about. It’s small but mighty!

ohhh this book sounds interesting! like suspense which i love! definitely one overall discussion for this book cause it is short and personally i wouldn’t mind either thread or meeting time! either way i can go back and read everyone’s thoughts and stuff! Going to go purchase the book!
