This was an interesting reading experience. I was interested in the story, but I didn’t love it. The characters were intriguing and I liked April for the most part she’s unlikable(that’s the point), but it was frustrating to read at times. This was funny and interesting and I learned a lot about some random topics which I enjoyed. I did also like the commentary about fame as well as like hate groups and humanity. I think I will continue on with the series because the ending was kind of shocking and I did enjoy the last 100 pages a lot. I also like how this was told and how the narrator would speak to us at times.

Ah, this is difficult. I should have loved this. I wanted to love this so much. But unfortunately, I didn't. I did love the middle part with the puzzle, I basically flew through that. But the first 40% were really hard to get through and although the second half got better, I didn't feel much. I think this was my biggest issue with the book. I really liked the premise, the topics discussed here, the bi representation. I liked how media and the life of a person who suddenly becomes famous is depicted. And I understand that the protagonist is an unlikable character on purpose. I even liked that she had flaws and made mistakes (even though I got annoyed when she didn't learn from them at all). But at the same time she has issues with feelings and shuts them out completely, so I really had trouble to care for her story and her cause. Because I didn't feel anything. I didn't hate it, I just didn't love it either, so my rating is somewhere in the middle.

A real page turner that honestly killed me. It was thought-provoking and engaging and filled with juicy nuggets of random information that my brain will forever store. Immediately ordered the next book in the series because I desperately need to know what happens next!

AHHHHHHHHHH! Djdjencirnskakeigncn 
Pardon that bit of keysmash, I couldn't contain my excitement. This was so good, insightful, deep, troubling, hopeful, beautiful, and so many other words that can be used to describe humans.
