Wow, I REALLY enjoyed this book! At first, I nearly cried over how dark the content would be. I steeled myself for all the unsavory details, but actually it was a surprising balance of dark and entertaining. The twist and turns we went through pretty much blew my mind and while it was heavily political, it's done in a way that isn't grating (or maybe our thoughts just aligned often). It's morally grey, which is always a favorite of mine and even the tech savvy speak was interesting to "follow" (I'm glad our Watson here was no not tech savvy and N so good with explanations!). Super enjoyed it!!
If you like Death Note, I think you'll enjoy this too. Just be warned that the TW are heavy for this one!
