This book felt quite chaotic to me. There were some interesting commentaries about internet culture and parasocial relationships via social media. I vibed a bit with the main character’s obsessive personality and tendencies. But the writing and characterization felt a little too vague and abstract for me to fully connect � I think grounding the scenes and the characters with more solid detail would have helped my reading experience.

I appreciated our protagonist’s occasional jabs and critiques of white supremacy as it manifests in social media culture (e.g., white influencers appropriating art by people of color or tokenizing people of color’s struggles). I wanted a little more growth and self-reflection about the social media obsession overall, though. At least the book flew by fast.
