Our world is getting smaller and smaller. Facebook, Twitter, virtual school, the list goes on and on. We don't even need to leave the house. We can have food delivered, work, and socialize - all from the comfort of our homes. Imagine if that was your only option. No face-t0-face school, no live inte...
Fantabulous!!! No other way to describe it. It was like Divergent and Delirium with a dose of possible reality added in. It wasn't completely what I expected when I read the description, but it was so much more. Honestly we are so wrapped up in technology that this isn't too far outside the realm...
I got about 50 pages into this book, and while the premise is promising, the book just isn't catching my attention. I find Maddie somewhat irritating and a bit confusing. On the one hand she'll mention how weird and strange she finds it that Justin wants to meet in person or likes being around peo...
Die Welt des Jahres 2060 hat sich verändert. Nach massiven Terroranschlägen auf Schulen hat man das normale schulsystem abgeschafft und die "Digital School", kurz DS eingeführt, bei der die Schüler zu Hause am Computer lernen, dabei zwar wunderbar geschützt sind, aber auch fernab von normalen sozial...
This book takes place in the not so distant future where everything is done by computer. School (Maddie's father is the creator of digital school), shopping, socializing, even exercise. There are no book made of paper. There are no real trees, they are now synthetic, and it's not very common to act...
Intriguing, very realistic, which made it compelling. What if all our lives was spent in front of a screen? What if we went on dates and runs and walks and saw movies all from the comfort of our home? I spend a lot of my time online, reading or on social media, and this book hit a little close to ho...
He lifted his shoulder. "You were brought up to think love and family is about protection. Like you need to hold people close in order to care about them. But that's just living inside a bubble. It's control. I was brought up to think love is trusting people enough to let them go. Like you can expan...
Now that I've read this book the cover makes so much more sense! Wow. I'm pretty sure that about sums up how I feel about Awaken, unless you'll permit me to say FREAKIN' WOW! Yup. That's more accurate. I think what most drew me in about the world that Katie Kacvinsky builds is how close to home it...
Awaken is a very interesting idea, one that could very easily become true. The idea that humans could cut themselves off from the world completely isn't that difficult to fathom - after all, we've been doing it for years, slowly but surely. Madeline is a very interesting character, you see her rebel...
You know what's one thing I love about blogging? I never would have discovered all these wonderful new authors if it wasn't for this amazing community. It's all you guys who tell me to get excited about books that aren't released yet and the excitement around a new release has me squeeling so much s...
