⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5. Finally, a new dystopian I could get into! In a future world ruined by climate change, the elite live in a dome called Snowglobe while the rest of the world freezes while using manual labor to produce geothermal energy. The citizens of Snowglobe are all actors and directors, and their lives are streamed as TV shows to the rest of the world. Jeon Chobalm dreams of being a director while toiling at the power plant, until one day she is whisked away to Snowglobe by a powerful director. Her job? Not directing. Instead, she will be standing in for her favorite actress and golden child Goh Haeri, who has taken her own life. As Chobalm gets further into Snowglobe, she realizes the dangerous secrets that lie within - and what she can do to bring justice to the victims. A second installment will be out next year, and I will definitely be reading that as well. Recommended for mature 7th grade readers and up.
