This reminded me a little bit of Ready Player One, in terms of the whole virtual reality plane and then the real-world plane. For most of this book it felt slow. I would be sitting deep reading for an hour or so and would only finish maybe 20 pages, typically I'm a faster reader so I did feel like the book was 800+ pages at times because of how it dragged. This book dragged so much until that last 20ish percent. It felt like very little happened until everything happened in the last 20% and then it ends on a cliffhanger. I will for sure read book 2 if it ever gets published but this was like dragging and slow until bam everything.
Thank you Netgalley and Hodder &Stoughton for my ARC copy. I knew i had to request this when I saw Chloe Gong had a new book. I decided to start it just before bed and did I need sleep?? Possibly. Did I get any?? No. But I did find possibly my favourite book of the year. One of my favourite Games is Cyberpunk and from the get go this gave off all the cyberpunk vibes. I would very highly recommend this to everyone.
