About this listen
Critic Reviews
Selected for School Library Journal Adult Books for Young Adults
"Wicked and wonderful....[It] does just about everything right. Fast-moving, funny, and involving." (The Washington Post Book World)
"Funny and clever....A kind of ad-world version of Dr. Strangelove. [Barry] unleashes enough wit and surprise to make his story a total blast." (The New York Times Book Review)
Hilarious, entertaining, interesting world and fun characters, tied together in a fast moving story
I roll my eyes pretty easily at a lot of cliché dystopian tropes but because the book doesn’t take itself too seriously it manages to avoid that fate
I also enjoyed how although the entire thing is a scathing portrait of extreme capitalism, it equally takes the piss out of the activist side of things too.
Yes, the only 2 Asian characters had horrendous voice acting, but it was less than 1% of the book and really wasn’t a dealbreaker, narrators turn me off very quickly and I actually quite enjoyed this one
Good clean fun
Actually very entertaining
