Finished reading: Version Zero by David Yoon 📚
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Credit to my local librarians who placed it prominently on a shelf I was casually browsing. The author does a great job of slowly building up the characters and turning up the dial in the last third of the story to the point that I really didn’t want to stop reading it.
The plot is highly relevant to modern social network / business issues and there are some not-so-subtle allusions to the current largest big tech companies.
I wrote about the easter egg code on my main blog and have heard back from the person who wrote it (update coming soon).
Definitely recommend. Once you’re finished, go back and re-read the first few pages.
