A mega corporation being dedicated to protecting user data (and winning a SCOTUS ruling so they can continue to protect user data) HAS to be the most unrealistic thing I’ve read in sci fi in years

DNF at 18%. Releasing this one after multiple library borrows lapsed because I would only read like 10 pages and then have to get in the hold line again. Sad this wasn’t for me after really liking the first one.

lol Libby says I first placed a hold on this in January 2022, let’s hope it’s been worth the wait

I just hit a point where I was like “this is a great place to start winding down!” And there’s still 100 PAGES LEFT wtf

It’s very funny that the audiobook narrator repeatedly mispronounced the name Niamh, only for Niamh the character to say “wow you got it right! No one gets it right!!!”

Why does the male narrator sound like like the TikTok AI when he does female voices???

Im choosing to ignore that the MMC plays for the cowboys 😇

The MMC is 27 and complaining about kids these days and their TikTok, as if I didn’t find this book from a TikTok

The author took a couple paragraphs to explain the hangman game… I might DNF over this.

“I hungered for gossip more than anything” hell yeah girlie, me too

Review/rating will be withheld in solidarity of the St Martins Press boycott.

If I had a nickel for every time this summer I’ve read a novel where a main character is asked to squeeze into a costume they wore as a child TV star, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?

Ok SPOILER but Call Me Maybe being a major plot device??? Hank you scoundrel I love you so much

Wish me luck I’m gonna attempt to reread SJM’s whole back catalog before cc3 comes out

DNF at 55%. Couldn’t stand one more minute of reading about a 19th century incel being praised for his behavior “because he loves her” 🤮

DNF at page 42. There’s so much going on between the art and the amount of dialogue and the amount of pop culture references that it’s just not enjoyable for me.
