3.0

While it has an interesting premise and is well-researched, the writing felt a bit pedantic at times. It took a decently long time for the plot to really build, and even then it never amounted to a whole lot. The world building was also a little odd, as it appeared to be set a few decades in the future, but many of the events on people's minds happened around 2020.
