Book 14 of 2023: Futuristic Violence and Fancy Suits by David Wong (jason pargin).
As a Zoey, I have to rep my fellow Zoey’s. Especially when they are haphazardly flung into dystopian chaos. Not the strongest female lead in a novel but I’ll take it for what it’s worth. My cat too drives the plot of my life. It definitely leans heavily into shock value and crassness and Zoey reads like a young adult written by a middle aged man but Christy Carlson Romano (Kim Possible) does fun voice acting in the audio book to really help bring this world to life despite its flaws. 2.5 ⭐️ because I enjoyed good portions of it but it’s not a reread.
I mostly bought this series for the titles of the next two books “Zoey Punches the Future in the D—“ and “Zoey is too Drunk for this Dystopia.”
