I was very much looking forward to reading this to see what all the buzz was about. The story concept is really good, and I loved the odes to 80s geek culture.

But the way that the plot played out was SOOOOO simplistic! Stupid plot devices abound that remove any challenge to the protagonist. I wondered if this was just a YA book which started out with a lot more promise. Could have been really memorable, but in the end, it was a throwaway read with a great starting point.
