As always, kind of frustrating by the end. Mike Chen seemingly sees the world for what it is, and is able to imagine that world into new ones (where the characters are set up to begin something new), but ends his books with weirdly neoliberal conclusions. I have no idea if this makes sense! I'm wondering if there's a fanfic audience for re-writing the ending of these books because if so I might find them and read them!
