Thank you to the author and BookSprout for providing a review copy.
If Celebrity Big Brother, Saw, and an escape room had a baby, it would be Slashtag. This book is so good that I actually put aside the other two books I'm reading to finish it. That hasn't happened in quite awhile.
The action is almost non-stop, the dialogue is clever (as is the satire), and I absolutely could not put it down. It's probably too much to hope for a spinoff or sequel, but I would absolutely read it. A mini-series or movie would be awesome too.
I read The Island Mother by John Cohn earlier this year and enjoyed it as well. Cohn is definitely on my radar, and I look forward to reading more titles by him. Strong 5 stars.
