This book was so cool! It is told in a compilation of files, transcripts, emails, etc. which was so fun and interesting to read. It was also way funnier than I expected it to be! It made me laugh out loud so much. I loved Kady and Ezra and it was surprising how developed their characters were when the book wasn't even told in a traditional format. The AI, AIDAN was also a really cool aspect to the story and I loved reading its character development as the story progressed. There were a couple of things I didn't particularly love about the ending but overall this book was everything I could have wanted. It was funny, intense, kept me on the edge on my seat, and hit me with plot twists I didn't see coming. I can't wait to read the rest of the series!
