Days of Distraction

First I thought this would turn into a companion piece to [b:Uncanny Valley: A Memoir 45186565 Uncanny Valley A Memoir Anna Wiener https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1559568004l/45186565.SY75.jpg 69908892] with the San Francisco tech angle, but then it became a study of interracial relationships. There were interesting moments and thoughts in here, but it somehow started to fizzle out midway. I thought it was actually quite funny that the protagonist was curating news articles for social media feeds, because the writing had this snippet thread quality (a mix of opinions, mundane life details, and interesting historical facts), where there weren't clear starts and stops and I kinda just kept reading like you keep scrolling, despite it not being super engaging.
