i don't really have any comprehensive thoughts on this book at the moment—i just know that i love it and that i love hank green and that i especially love hank green's utter love of humanity and what makes us humans. it was a deeply loving book and i'm going to miss this duology a lot.

There were parts of this book that I didn’t find particularly engaging, but the themes were fascinating. I deeply enjoyed the topics that Green raised in the book, especially observations about what motivates people and how that affects how our society works. I appreciate the way Green makes his characters flawed, and how that isn’t always resolved in the ways that we want.

Very different from the first one; better.
Around the halfway point I realized it's a cyberpunk story, but honestly that should've been obvious from the very start, given it is About modern internet culture
