This book made me feel a lot of things and consider a lot of truly interesting facets about how we all interact with each other in the world day. It wasn't a consistently enjoyable experience, but I was enraptured the entire time, and that was clearly the intention.

I've read it three times now. One of my favorite books. It gets stressful at parts, but definitely worth it. Two part series, you don't want to miss the second book. If you like anything Hank Green has ever done, there's a good chance you'll like his books.

Really enjoyed this book. Fast read, compelling, and realistic, flawed characters. The premise is an original idea with the commentary of political polarization, fame, power, and vitality of the internet. Excited for the sequel!
