Set in the not-too-distant future, society looks very similar to today. Unsurprisingly, people are more dependent on their cell phones than ever, especially on an app called Lux, which analyzes every situation for you and tells you the optimal choice for every question - what to eat, where to shop, when to leave for an appointment. When Rory gets accepted to the most prestigious high school in the country, she's thrilled, especially when she ⬇️

TheAromaofBooks finds out that her mother (who died when Rory was born) also attended the same school. Things take a darker twist, though, as Rory begins to discover things about the school, a secret society, and (of course) Lux. While some aspects of this story were predictable YA/scifi/dystopian kind of stuff, overall I really loved the concept of a society that has done its best to quash that quiet voice in our heads & replace it with 100% rational choices ⬇ 5y
TheAromaofBooks thanks to technology. This book felt like it could easily have strayed too far into religious territory, but kept the balance well. Overall a fun read for its genre.

Special thanks to @emilymdxn for hosting the #WideHorizonsReadathon this past week! I didn't do a great job posting my updates, but I did track my time. I was halfway the tagged book when I went to bed last night, putting my final time at 18hrs 18mins - short of my goal, but I did read 8 1/2 books during this week (a total of 2305 pages!) Life was a little crazier than expected, so not as much reading time as I wanted, but still loads of fun!

Ok, seriously one of the best books I have ever read. The description of the book makes it seem really cliché, but if you can get past that it's really well written. So, Rory is a girl living in a dystopian future (yeah, cliché) and she enrolls to her dream school of Theden Academy. She's really smart, so she gets in. When she gets to the school somethings are pretty sketch-so obviously she's gotta figure it out. Really cool, highly recommend!

lilredhen I was pleasantly surprised when I read this. Proof that I shouldn't take books at the value of their descriptions. 8y

This was a great read. I thought at first that it would be another "super smart teen goes to fancy school, angst happens". Instead I get conspiracies, murder, and a discussion of free will, complete with riddles and quotes from Paradise Lost.

Getting close to the end. Normally tech/near dystopian isn't my thing, but I haven't wanted to put it down. I HAVE wanted to never ever ever use a tablet or smart phone again lol
