I think the review describing this as weird lit fic is pretty right. High concepts relatable to today’s serious social media effect on our societies, but execution falls a bit flat. Some storylines are considerably weaker than others and do not contribute enough to the book imo, and ends abruptly in an unresolved manner. But overall I think it’s worth reading for at least another two years just bc of the tech talk aspect. We srsly need to get our acts together and soon.
