Popsicle

By: Christa Wojciechowski

What can I say, this book is addictive. Which is ironic because the main theme of the story is addiction. Addiction to drugs and addiction to social media. The parallels are scary.

The main character, Andre, is just one of those characters you can't trust, an unreliable narrator of the highest order, but he's somehow endearing and is just trying to survive.

I like how this book is kind of a warning to not get lost in social media land and how it can take over our lives.

My favorite quote from the book is "Society'll be reduced to thinking in follows and hearts and poop emojis?"

Aren't we already half way there?
