In roughly the first half of this, I thought the look into social media and fame through April was interesting but the story was very secondary. However, the second half of the book pulled me in and both the story and the discussion happening through April were just as engaging. There is also so much about relationships and the impact one person's choices can really make on someone (not just in terms of the big picture, but how it can impact individuals). I feel like there is still a lot to unpack in regards to what this says about fame and about parts of social media at the time this was written, so I will definitely be doing a reread to really look at this (eventually). I am really interested to see what Hank adds in the sequel, especially since social media has evolved even between 2016-18 (when this was likely being written and edited) to now. I went in preparing to like this, but it still surprised me and I can't wait to get into the sequel.
