Little Eyes by Samanta Schweblin
3.75
challenging dark emotional reflective slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Imagine if Apple made furbies that you could log into. What if you could watch the person who bought your furby as they live their life? What if humans were nasty and hijinks ensued once anyone was given free reign to spy on someone through a plush toy? 'Little Eyes' made me uncomfortable in all the right ways and I can't wait to read more of Schweblin's work.
