Book of the Month:
“Futuristic Violence and Fancy Suits” by David Wong
For September’s Book of the Month, we’re sticking to the futuristic mystery theme and adding a little bit of snark. “Futuristic Violence and Fancy Suits” is, from what we’ve heard, supposed to be a fun romp through a tech-forward society. If it is anything like Wong’s other novels (ie. “John Dies at the End” and “This Book is Full of Spiders”) it will be a well-written puzzler that keeps you guessing until the end.
The summary for this novel that you’ll see everywhere seems to lay it all out there:
“Nightmarish villains with superhuman enhancements.
An all-seeing social network that tracks your every move.
Mysterious, smooth-talking power players who lurk behind the scenes.
A young woman from the trailer park.
And her very smelly cat.
Together, they will decide the future of mankind.”
I mean…yes! I’m in! Let’s go! Enjoy and hope to see you all in September!
