After Atlas by Emma Newman
4.0

This book was a godsend, honestly. I listened to it the week after the 2016 presidential election and it was a distraction I desperately needed. I realize not everyone wants dystopian noir right now, but it was mostly being about to read a new book by an author whose work always resonates with me that I needed. And this was no exception.
Aside from that, it was also a compelling and fascinating story. I loved the world she envisioned, I love all the thought she put into policing in a connected future and I loved how unpredictable, but inevitable in retrospect it was. So good!
I'm hoping for another book in this universe, although I know Emma's next two books are set in other universes.
