RaveAltaCastillo writes a love story, neither trite nor pandering, over this terrain; it is simultaneously an interrogation of capitalism and tech ecosystems ... Castillo leans in to immersion, the sense that all senses are tuned and reactive ... There was a brief moment in the book when I prepared for Castillo to succumb to the temptation of a predictable plot, allowing the hero to be too good and the big corporation to be evil. Instead, she skillfully avoids simplicity, revealing all new depths of her characters and their motivations.
