For readers of Leila Slimani's The Perfect Nanny or Ling Ma's Severance : a tight, propulsive, chilling novel by a rising international star about a group of young colleagues working as social media content monitors--reviewers of violent or illegal videos for an unnamed megacorporation--who convince themselves they're in control ... until the violence strikes closer to home.

Could not put down submitted by tcramer318 on June 16, 2023, 7:18am I can't explain what I liked or what made this novel good without giving too much away, but it's definitely of our times and should be recommended reading. A little bit dystopian, but also rooted in actual events happening in the last few years. Looking forward to more from this author.
Quick read, but very dark submitted by traverwood23 on July 7, 2023, 10:20am I saw this on an Atlantic list of best short reads, but do not recommend it. It was very dark and didn't show any character development. Just a look into the depravity of social media system with no real revelations.
