Wow! I really loved this book! This was my first - I can’t put this book down of 2021. (I’m not sure I read any of those books in 2020 at all.)
This book takes place in two time lines - one the future where something catastrophic happened (technology failed, no devices, etc) that changed the course of the United States and resulted in everyone wearing devices that work inside your head and the rise of a town where all of its residents are watched 24/7, it’s participants signing on and trying to get the most followers.
The other timeline is in the 2015/2016 and you see what happened as it unfolded.
I don’t know, this explanation doesn’t really do it justice. This book just so immediately hooked me. It follows some traditional dystopian story arcs, but also does its own thing.
The only reason this one isn’t five stars is because the ending seemed to fizzle out for me. There was such a build up and I guess I wanted more. That said, I ALSO think the ending was entirely appropriate and completely and totally worked. I just wanted more. Maybe I just wanted more of the store. More of the book. I don’t know!
