The amount of times Sloan decided to put the word "Googlers" in this book was upsetting and cringy. Clay the main character is very dry and doesn't really add much and while the whole book sounds interesting in theory but it just didn't meet that in execution. The use of technology in this book reads like someone who joined facebook and now thinks that they are a technology expert. Seriously the only technology related people in this book are either "Googlers" or "Ex- Googlers". Additionally for some reason on this romantic quest he suddenly has a girl friend this girl he just met and suddenly they are an item like what? Also they have this really weird unnecessary scene with his friend Neel who if you hadn't picked up at this point isn't white but Sloan has this whole weird scene where face id can't recognize him and he blames it on him not being white. I felt like it was Sloan being like see I added a minority characters give me a pat on the back but in reality it just felt like tokenism. Overall this book was way overhyped and doesn't really focus on the books just people in a bookstore in an indian jones style adventure which to be honest I felt a bit baited with the bookstore bit.
