I’m beyond perplexed about what to do with this book.

It’s all a simulation. All of it. Even the FAYZ. All AI driven created by Malik and shade, fed by there memories. Memories of what? Did any of it actually happen? None of it? Edilio was short shrifted no matter how you slice it. The resolution of drake was so simple. I just. What am I supposed to do now? 9 books and I know the characters aren’t real but they actually aren’t REAL?!?! Why bother. And they vote in the end whether to end the sim or not and we don’t find out how it shakes out. It’s the Buffy in the insane asylum ending everyone feared.
