Little Brother was the best book I've read recently. It was a little bit far-fetched, but the technology and security discussed and the history of those issues kept me rapt. I would highly recommend this book to any gamers or geek kids out there. The book will keep me thinking for a while, and I like that in a book. There are two afterwords that add to the sinister feeling. Very "Orwellian." I need someone to read this so we can talk about it. I gave it to my husband; I think he will like it.
Next on my list is
The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness. Might be a good complement to
Little Brother, since it's about a society where everyone can hear everyone else's thoughts. No privacy whatsoever.
