A review by simoneclark
Otaku by Chris Kluwe
4.0
Thank you, NetGalley, for a complimentary copy of this book. The opinion in this review is my unbiased opinion!
Honestly, I don't know what to think of this book. It reminded me of another book. I can't quite remember which book. But then again, it has its own unique features.
I did love Chris Kluwe's world and character building. While I didn't understand some of the cyber tech elements he used, I could still picture them due to his description. What surprised me is that he was able to write this book from the perspective of a black female. Occasionally, I thought that a young girl wouldn't react the way Ashley did in the book, but then reminded myself that this is a sort of post-apocalyptic, cyber-tech ruled world she lives in. I'm a GenXer and often don't understand the ideology of Millenials and GenZers lol. So who am I to judge a cyber-tech girl.
Overall a good book. I think I didn't read this quite at the right time in my life, but I still enjoyed the book.
