'Feed' was born from the the era of internet and social networking and tied closer to our modern capitalist world where corporation thrive in this consumer utopia. Set in a world which carry the undefined line between utopia/dystopia as Huxley's Brave New World, Feed was driven by the two star-cross...
So, the ending was pretty gut-wrenching, but I can't say that I really enjoyed reading this book. I had a hard time getting into it and found it difficult to give a crap about the story or anyone in it, until that ending. Sad.
I'm not sure what to say about this book. I didn't like Titus, the main character. I didn't like the world, I didn't like the constant advertisements. I didn't like the people. I didn't like that no one took Violet seriously.But this is a good book. It's a scary book - a realistic commentary on...
I keep hearing this book referred to as "satire," but it felt a lot more like a 1984 or a Brave New World. Dystopian, and yet far too near the truth to be considered as such.This was a really enoyable read. Anderson creates a new slang that doesn't bog down the story or the writing, which is one o...

In a way this book is really sort of scary. Some things seem so similar to the present times. I will not have a feed implanted if that ever be...
So, here's the review I wrote about 25% of the way through:There are some YA books that could easily be interchangeable with adult fiction. This is not one of them. This is clearly "a message for the kids". And that message is: The internet is making you all stupid, inarticulate, illiterate drones a...
I was turned off by the dialogue and I felt no draw toward the characters. This book gets zero stars because I did not read enough of it to give a rating. The dialogue and language used by the characters made it dificult to understand what was really going on in the story. I could not take it anymor...
