Classroom of the Elite (Light Novel) Vol. 1 by Syougo KinugasaMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Sometimes I'm in the mood for a serious look at actual societal injustice without any kind of fantasy or SF slant. In this case, this light novel (that inspired the manga and the anime) hits many of those sweet spots.
Informational warfare, economic inequality, the whole thumb on the scale BS, and faulty assumptions run rife in this YA classroom story. They're set up to fail and are led right to the chopping block, but a few come to their senses and attempt to fight back.
It's a great little setup. I'm down for it. :)
Personal note:
If anyone reading my reviews is be interested in reading my SF (Very hard SF, mind you), I'm open to requests.
Just direct message me in goodreads or email me on my site. I'd love to get some eyes on my novels.
