Given the way our world seems to be spiraling out of control, Rule 34 looks like a plausible and very scary future.
I didn't like this book through the first third, but after awhile it finally hooked me. Something an the interweaving stories and the pace of the mystery really comes together at that point.
This was okay. But the main part of the story was good. It is written in the first person which is a bit weird at first but you get used to it.
I loved all the little nerdy details and shout-outs to the memes that obviously should be in a book titled rule 34
