What do a load of influencers attending an Island festival laden with supermodels do when the festival turns out to be a sham? Pretend they’re having a great time of course so their social media accounts look like they’re having a great time.

A highly satirical mash up of Lord of the Flies and Fyre Festival, this book shines an unforgiving light on everything that is wrong with influencer culture. The characters are shallow, unlikeable, self-obsessed and whiny.

Although it’s a humorous expose of modern society I felt like something was missing. Part of me wanted Rafi, the main character, to have a bit more backbone and moral integrity, but she is just as bad as the others!

Narrator did a brilliant job at capturing the different personalities.

An absolute wild ride the whole way through. The beginning of this was pretty hilarious and honestly I had a great time. I would have preferred slightly more surviving in a jungle on a deserted island for a week feel than the podcasters, influencers and rich people politics we got.

A hilarious and campy rendition of Lord of the Flies set at a doomed music festival. A fun romp that will have you captivated.
