If you want a book about flawed narrators and the mess that is the internet, social media and inappropriate online content, this is for you.

If you want loveable characters, plots that come to a clear resolution or something that feels like more than an angry diatribe/character study, give this a miss

It's a challenging book full of awful things happening on the Internet and the witness stress of those paid to review flagged posts and the hardships of that job, their coping.... Their fallout of beliefs from flat Earth to denying the Holocaust, the tiers of what most need taken down and what isn't is hard, the hopefully things they see, some described, is really hard to hear. Especially a young girl cutting her face before killing herself.. And how they take the cutting post down and find out about her suicide later because they can't stop thinking about the girl and remember her real name and investigate. Along in the story is the narrator trying to have a relationship with her girlfriend that goes through it's own hardships in parallel to the harshness of this job both women and their friends work at.


It's well written but full of so many trigger flags, most of not all of them.

This had potential but was strangely boring. I liked that it was short, but hated the ending and found the unreliability of the narration irritating. Overall a miss for me but I did think the author wrote well.
