As much as I love dystopian novels, and as much as the kink in the book should ping my deepest buttons, the kink's decidely non-kinky in the book, and you're right, it feels so...removed from the reader. Nonetheless I liked the concept well enough to read the book and think about what I'd wanted it to be. And then? They made a film of it, and it was everything I had wanted--it no longer felt removed, there was some drama (including a change in an element of the ending), and the kink was kinky. :D I recommend the movie!
