Meme

De: Aaron Starmer

Narrado por: Sophie Amoss, Michael Crouch, Alex McKenna, Everette Plen

A tense, psychological thriller about the destructive combination of self-important goals and self-serving plans.

Cole Weston—former friend, former boyfriend—was becoming erratic, dangerous.

Something had to be done.

Getting rid of Cole is practically a public service. So high school seniors Holly Morse, Grayson Hobbs, Logan Bailey, and Meeka Miller devise a plan: Kill Cole. Bury him in the woods behind Meeka’s house along with four old cell phones, wiped except for their video confession—insurance that no one will ever betray the group.

And it seems like they’ve gotten away with it. Until the meme appears—a screenshot from their confession. The confession that’s supposed to be buried with Cole forever, deep in the cold Vermont dirt.

Awful, all I can say

So many things to not like about this. That narrator, Everett Plen made it worse. What other people said about unlikable characters doesn't bother me really. I mean they are extremely unlikable people.

The book in general is pretentious and feels awkward. Written by a middle aged man trying to write about teens. Like he felt he was the qualified expert to write about privilege, "toxic masculinity" and the darker parts of the web. I can tell you he isn't.

I struggled through it to the end even though it was pretty transparent how the end would go. Save the credits or money and skip this trainwreck.
