I’m always hesitant about YA, but this was just plain fun. well written, great plot and tension and I’m far enough removed from high school that I can read about it with enjoyment!

I was interested by this description, but wasn’t sure if I should expect this to be fresh or well done. After reading your review, I definitely want to pick this up!

The Takedown sounds amazing. I don’t usually read YA, but may need to make an exception on this one. Now you have me really curios as to what the other two books will be???

I’m the same way- I don’t read much YA at all! A friend gave it to me and I went with it and aside from the high school aspect it didn’t scream YA at all. Especially with the lead female.

No matter what, it’s a quick read so you won’t waste a lot of time if you try it. I just loved it.

This plays right into that whole thing. On the surface you think ‘how cool’ but then…privacy is a thing of he past. Scary.

It’s a great book and a quick read, I think you’d really like it!

This sounds AMAZING! My husband and I were just watching a segment on 60 Minutes last night (I feel so old admitting this) about the way in which tech companies are building in tools to help us become more addicted to their products…ugh. I may have to give this one a go, Catherine; thanks for sharing and I’m so glad you had such a wonderful experience!

I requested it on NG, but I think it was too late. Never heard anything. Am planning to read it after Anything is Possible (my last ARC of April).
