Considering I do not tend to enjoy thrillers, I was surprised how much I truly enjoyed this book. It's so well-paced. And as a former English major, I loved the look into semiotics and trying to define what are words and their power. The whole analysis of language (verbal and nonverbal but can't go more into it because of spoilers) and also the dystopian impacts of persuasion via the internet (no longer even needing to really persuade because an algorithm does it for you) was just sooo good. And also I was quite a fan of the love story in this. An all-around very fun and entertaining read, highly recommend.
Also, could someone please make this a movie with Chris Hemsworth. I would very much like to watch that.
