Content Warnings

Moderate: Panic attacks/disorders, Stalking, and Addiction

Minor: Sexual assault and Car accident

There's a character who lies about being sexually assaulted, and a character is hit by a car and the scene is briefly detailed, is not explicit, however the stalking, panic attacks and addiction are very prominent topics on the narrative.

Ich habe das Buch das erste Mal in der 6. Klasse gelesen, als Schullektüre. Und seitdem mindestens noch einmal, vielleicht zweimal. Und jetzt wieder - mitten in der Klausurenphase. Es war mal wieder so gut, dass ich bis jetzt viel zu wenig gelernt habe... naja zum Buch: absolut sagenhaft, vor allem die in-game Kapitel haben mir viel Spaß gemacht.

und die Art, wie die Underground in das Spiel eingebaut ist, das war der größte Plottwist beim ersten Mal lesen ./spoiler> Ein paar der Charactere waren eher nervig, aber der Schreibstil war angenehm, schnell zu lesen, das ganze Foreshadowing macht natürlich bei einem Re-Read noch mehr Sinn, selbst wenn ich das Buch das letzte Mal vor ein paar Jahren gelesen habe. Und ich würde gerne mal Victor besuchen, cooler Typ :)

 Reading this felt like seeing someone who has never played a video game watch somebody else play skyrim and now they're lecturing you about how violence in digital media corrupts teenagers.
