DNF @ page 115. The narrative voice in this is bothering me too much to keep on reading. Like it tries too hard to be satirical and ironic but just come across as someone from r/iam13andthisisdeep wrote what they imagine what the digital future holds for us and how an apocalypse would occur during it. There was also a strange distancing effect in the writing when we weren't directly in Zhen's narrative, like it was done on purpose to keep us from divining the whole apocalypse reveal too early on. I hated it.

Also, I knew the characters names about 20 pages in. Alderman didn't have to use their first AND last names every other time they showed up on page again. Jeez.
