3rd Unwind Letter

SO MANY TWISTS HOLY SHIT
it took me like an hour to fully comprehend the amount of plot twists that this book has, it's absolutely brilliant. The biggest one is the one about the Sargent and his family, which kind of make me literally make a face that looked like this --> :O. I was just stunned, and a bit horrified, at what had just happened. I don't want to give away too many spoilers, just in case someone who hasn't read the book yet stumbles upon my blog and is then devastated when they read about the plot twists. I will say that they're amazing, and I didn't expect any of them.
Anyway, a few scenes got to me while I was reading, the biggest one being when uh INSERT NAME was being unwound and he describes his experience:

{INSERT QUOTE HERE} (i'll put it in when I can find the book. it's the unwinding process)

That just sounds so surreal, I don't even understand it. He stays alive all the way to when they take apart his brain, that part was the scariest to me. In a sense I think I would rather die than be unwound, from what's described it sounds like you're slowly withering away. I'd rather die than not be able to comprehend anything. It's pretty much like dying with the actual satisfaction of dying and, although it's done in a humane way, it sounds like a horrible experience.
It kind of makes you think though, isn't this slightly plausible? I'm not sure myself but the whole 'unwinding =/= killing' scenario seems highly plausible for me.

This quote I stole from Adam

"...We believe in randomness... We believe in forces of nature-and WE are forces of nature. We are havoc. We're chaos. We mess with the world... It dosnt matter who or what we mess with, just as long as we mess. The way we see it, the world dosent move if things dont get shaken up..."

Ahhh doesn't this sound plausible too though? It sounds a lot like groups that already exist, rebellions. I wonder if I'd be in one of these groups, after all their 'plans' have a pretty nice goal don't they? If you're on the path to being unwound, why let other people get unwound while you slip by the security? That's why I liked the whole detail that went into the way they did the things they did and for what reasons.

Well then that's it for lit circle letters! I'll save the good stuff for the monthly review.
