This book was so much fun. It had everything that I love about dystopia and it was masterfully executed. It was thrilling, exciting, and thought provoking. The plot just kept me going. Even though I saw quite a few of the twists coming, it didn’t stop me from being invested.
Emika goes through some wonderful development. Usually I heavily depend on some strong side characters, but this book is very much a solo show for Emika. However, I liked her so much and everything about the book was so good that it didn’t bother me at all.
I’m definitely going to read the second book as well!

I really like the plot of this book because I felt it was quite unique, while still sticking to the futuristic theme of virtual reality being integrated with every part of life. The mystery was interesting and evolved well, keeping me interested. The characters were very likable and the main character, Emika, was realistic with how she reacted with the obstacles in her life and in the story. The relationships between the characters all worked well.
