To recover from a cataclysmic war, the Harvest was created to pass blood to those affected by radiation. But this charitable act has led to a society segregated entirely by blood type. Patriot thanks and rewards your generous gift based on the compatibility of your donation, meaning that whoever can give to the most, gets the most back. While working as a reaper for the draw, Willa chances upon an idea to resurrect an obsolete collection technique that could rebalance the city. But in her quest to put this in motion, she instead uncovers a secret that threatens her entire foundations....

Starts off strong with a lot of interesting ideas about blood based identity politics and dystopian world building but doesn't quite live up to its promises. I had a feeling what the "twist" was going to be before it's revealed and I thought surely they won't go there, it's too obvious of a metaphor but nope, they went there and that's where my interest took a nose dive. At least they had a few original ideas presented about certain aspects of said "twist" but it took something that originally felt more like a clever social commentary into cliche that I wish it left alone.
The characters were great though. I think the only one that I didn't enjoy was the teenager but that's because of the narrators choice of how to portray their voice. they leaned waaaay too far into 80's valley girl and it was challenging to listen to. But otherwise the narrator does a decent job.
Overall it was fine. loved the first bit but kind of struggled through the rest of it and the ending didn't really stick the landing for me.
Good but not great
