As an avid reader and lover of *most* dystopian books, I was quite excited about the premise of this novel where essentially the digital age kills the age of print.
Sadly, I could not get in to this book and am giving up after Chapter One. I am not a fan of books that make me feel stupid and having to stop the flow of the story to look up word definitions does exactly that. If that was the intention of the author, bravo! However, no thanks. This is filled with $0.25 or word of the day vocab and I'm really not a fan of footnotes being included in something that I'm trying to read for leisure.
