Second Sister was a fantastic thriller! It had plenty of twists and turns that made this book hard to put down (or pause).
I loved how clever this book was. There was so much information on cyber security and tech, and it was written in a way that it didn't seem like it was constantly info-dumping. I also loved all of the IYKYK references to Monty Python and Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
The characters were incredibly well written, even the minor characters had an intricate backstory, and I absolutely adored how snarky the hacker, N was. The audiobook narrator, Nancy Wu, did a fabulous job of bringing the story to life.
