The education system is divided into three tiers, with the silver schools reserved for students with top-level Q scores, green schools serving the “average” kids and the dreaded yellow State Schools hoovering up anyone whose Q falls below a certain threshold. Q is another near-future dystopian story, this time set in an America where a eugenicist organization has reorganized society around people’s quotient, or “Q” scores. In that vein, today we’re looking at Q, Christina Dalcher’s followup to 2017’s Vox, which I didn’t really like at all. ![]() ![]() When a novel lets me down, my immediate reaction isn’t to cast its author out of my Kindle wishlist for all time it’s to take a keen interest in whatever they write next. ![]() You may not have noticed this, but I like reading bad books. ![]()
