For fans of the Magnus Archives episode "Binary". Well-paced and written entirely through Slack messages made this a really quick read. It somehow manages to be both lighthearted and horrifying all at once. I do wish there had been a real wrap-up to the Lydia plotline, though. Funny enough to be able to read and scary enough to make sure you don't spend too much time in your work messages.

Hello weird little book, you were great! Read in an afternoon off from work, there's a lot going on here, not all of which I'm 100% sure I get, but I laughed a lot and enjoyed myself. Ending seemed a bit abrupt. :dusty-stick: :eyes:

this was such a delightful and clever read - author did a fantastic job of capturing the corporate hellspace/the way people talk to each other on slack (lol). main things i got out of it are that capitalism/the corporate world is evil and love and camaraderie will get you through challenging times. and also that slackbot might be sentient, so watch out
