Now WAVE, the world's biggest virtual reality platform, has announced a contest where the winner gets to meet its billionaire founder. The same billionaire who worked closely with Opal's dad. The one she always believed might know where he went. The one who maybe even murdered him.

I made it to the end of this purely because I'd had a series of bad books and wanted to at least finish one of them.
This book is poorly written. It plays with societal commentary that it has not properly thought through and that, in the end, barely impacts the core narrative.
Additionally, the ending was unsatisfying and left many ongoing plot points ignored and unresolved.
I do not recommend this book, it will leave you disappointed and unsatisfied.
Go read Ready Player One. It deals with the political commentary in a vastly superior manor and the characters are infinitely more fleshed out.
