Sorry to hear about the broken arm! But welcome to the book club – I’m sure a great, pacy read will help block out some of the pain! Heather

223 pages in…… it is definitely thought provoking. Without giving any spoilers, at this stage in the book, I feel Ola’s pain of being torn. Intrigued to see where the story is going in part 3.

I agree! I’ve been off on holiday and devoured the book in a couple of days. I was definitely struck by Ola’s confusion and conflict - plus the power of social media to unravel lives, careers and relationships in the touch of the button… Can’t wait to hear what more of you think and put your questions to Yomi!

I started reading last night and enjoying it so far! My question for Yomi is how did you come up with this particular storyline?

Amazing, thank you!

SO excited to read this after reading all these comments! Currently training for a half marathon so it may have to be a cheeky audible purchase to listen to on those long runs.

I just finished the book! So much I want to say but I won’t to avoid any spoilers… was an enjoyable read, very thought-provoking with lots of topical issues that are tackled. Really interested to hear everyone’s thoughts on the book - especially around the downsides to social media and the general culture of always being online

I’ve tried Amazon where I get most of my books

I devoured it on my holiday. What a story with so many turns and twists! It was an exciting and thought-provoking read, for sure. I was pretty annoyed at Michael for quite a while…

I’m half way through and I’m struggling. Finding it all very repetitive and I have to say boring. Same arguments being presented over and over. Only persevering because it was £7.99! I am a librarian so hate paying for books!!!

Hi, just finished this book and absolutely loved it. It is not something I’d normally read but I couldn’t put it down. A but if a slow start so keep going.
Social media can be so destructive, it’s quite scary.
