4.5

really entertaining book and very immersive. I loved following our protagonist, and really loved the friends he made along the way, especially mimi and deke. I often felt the urge to keep on reading and find out what happened next. I wish we had gotten a little more time to spend in the changed future of 2011, because I found this to be very interesting. in the middle section, the book does suffer in pacing and length - it feels like we are reading a slice of life story rather than a suspenseful book. nonetheless, I thought the story was creative and well researched, the human connections were deep and authentic, and the ending was pleasantly bittersweet.
