Based on a concept by Jennifer Beals and Tom Jacobson.

Cassie McKinney has always believed in the Hive.

Social media used to be out of control, after all. People were torn apart by trolls and doxxers. Even hackers - like Cassie's dad - were powerless against it.

But then the Hive came. A better way to sanction people for what they do online. Cause trouble, get too many "condemns", and a crowd can come after you, teach you a lesson in real life. It's safer, fairer, and perfectly legal.

Entering her senior year of high school, filled with grief over an unexpected loss, Cassie is primed to lash out. Egged on by new friends, she makes an edgy joke online. Cassie doubts anyone will notice.

But the Hive notices everything. And as her viral comment whips an entire country into a frenzy, the Hive demands retribution.

One moment, Cassie is anonymous; the next, she's infamous. And running for her life. With nowhere to turn, she must learn to rely on herself - and a group of Hive outcasts who may not be reliable - as she slowly uncovers the truth about the machine behind the Hive.

I wish there would have been more than the majority of the book being spent in hiding.

This was an excellent book told with what feels like a possible future for humanity in mind as our technology is ever evolving and growing can we as a species stop or at least change its direction as we head towards a future with more and more AI possibilities I highly recommend this read for any fans of Ready Player one.

Intriguing and scary!!!

What a concept and not far from a future we could see. We like the invisibility the internet can give us but what if it could be the end all ruling. And do we know who is really controlling it. You could go down rabbit holes with this book.
I wanted to know more about Cassie's Father and how he died. There seemed to be more there. Otherwise it was good and enjoyable. I will warn it took a minute to get into and build the character into something likable.

Incredibly Interesting

Great book for dystopian predictions; except it’s already real. No wonder kids are so anxious these days.

A eerie look at the dangers of herd mentality.
