Review 

I really enjoyed the pacing and how it was steady throughout. It is fast paced and doesn't let up and didn't have moments that dragged. It made for a fast and furious read.

It really shined light on to the characters and world in general.

I liked that this was sci-fi but also had many other qualities that made it lovable to readers of suspense, humor, and fiction in general.

  1. Thanks for the great review for 'The Digital Now'! It's good to hear the book was a fast and furious read. I put intense effort into the pacing of the book to balance its momentum with its deeper themes, so I'm happy it kept the pages turning. Thanks again!
