(3.5 Stars) This is the first story I read for my Tor short story challenge, not a bad start either. I've read worse. It's a Sci-fi book about artificial intelligence and science experiments related to a skinner box within a skinner box. The science jargon mostly went over my head as usual but was made up for with the plot twists. There was a surprising amount of these considering it was such a short story. I got Maze Runner vibes toward the end of it but wasn't entirely satisfied with the ending. However, at no point during the story was I board and so I would say it was adequately gripping. Didn't blow me out of the water, but it didn't sink my boat either.
