This was my second Neal Stephenson book, my first beinf Diamond Age, and I have to say- it was a much easier read than Diamond Age haha. The characters were funny and entertaining. Stephenson wrote a 15 year old girl so well, she was just the right amount of a jerk, as well as sweet and also tough! 

Hiro is himbo vibes for sure, but we love him for it. I of course felt a bit bogged down at some of the longer historical context bits, but they definitely played into the plot so i cant be too mad about them! 

The last few chapters were chaos and i loved it even though it was a rollercoaster!
