Mona Lisa Overdrive

pick

First published in 1988, this third book in the Sprawl trilogy brings the threads of the earlier books together, blending familiar characters with newcomers like Kumiko, the daughter of a yakuza boss; Slick Henry, a compulsive artist dealing with the long-term effects of incarceration; and Mona, a teenager caught in a vast and deadly plot. A fascinating and complex world of AI and corporate power, visionary and intricately imagined.

William Gibson is the Husband‘s favorite author and he‘s dying for me to read this, but I‘m having trouble getting into it. I always feel such pressure when he hands me something to read, anyone feel me in this one?

LoverofLit Yes! My husband is a huge Reddit and podcast fan and he'll make me read or listen to something he's passionate about and sometimes he'll WATCH me while I'm doing it and I hate it! The pressure is too much! 7y

jfalkens My husband doesn't read much so when he recommends a book I know it's probably good but I still feel pressure to like it, especially if he tells me it's his favorite. 7y

2BR02B My relationship is the opposite- I'm the one constantly handing my SO books and pestering him to read them. 😅 7y

so-so

I‘ve loved every other Gibson book I‘ve read but this one fell a little flat for me. I‘m not exactly sure why; maybe I just got wasn‘t in the right frame of mind for it.
