This book emphasizes the everyday stories of people living in a dystopian world (rather, a near-future projection of our current world). While there are the normal horrible dystopian things happening, the story focuses Joey, who is essentially a producer for a social media star's life, and Rudra, the second son of a rich family who comes to work for her. Both of these people use privilege and power to work to make the world a slightly less dystopian place--although the world is definitely not in any way significantly better at the end of the book. But that's not the point of the book at all. The point is that we don't need to all be save-the-world types to make a difference, we need to look at what we have at hand and use that to make the world around us a better place, even if it is only a slightly better place. 

What a truly terrible book. Wow.
