An incredibly raw perspective from our unhinged protagonist. Dark, yet hilarious and extremely quoteable. An absolutely magnificent narration from the author herself. The voices she does for the other characters are just dripping with contempt. Especially the text message conversations, I will never look at texts ending with ‘haha' the same again. Bonus references to Lord of the Rings!

Really wanted to like this book more. I was intrigued by the premise of the combination of drugs/virtual reality, but the story went in directions I didn't care much for. Styled with lots of in world slang, which I was into but went a bit overboard after a while. Tech side a little dated, fitting for when published in the 90s though. If anyone has suggestions for books that deal with perceptions of reality and/or addiction please let me know, I'm still needing that itch scratched as Vurt didn't do it.
