In a world where skycams follow your every move and the
details of your life are uploaded each hour, Sofi knows that her eyes are the
only caring ones watching her brother, Shilo. As an online gamer, she works
behind the scenes to protect Shilo as he competes in a mix of real and virtual
blood sport. But when a bomb destroys the gaming arena, she is helpless to
rescue him—and certain that his disappearance was no accident.
My Thoughts:
The Evaporation of
Sofi Snow was a strange book, but in a good way. Very different from
anything I’ve ever read. Author Weber
keeps you guessing throughout the entire story. The world building was sublime.
I felt like I’d lived in this world my whole life by the time I finished the book.
And the plot was complex and filled with many twists and turns.
The characters were also very enjoyable. Sofi is a snarky, independent
computer genius, who is determined to always get her way. But underneath all
that causticness is vulnerability and pain. Heller and Claudius were very
amusing characters who kept me snickering at their antics. And Miguel? Si, Si. Miguel was an excellent
character. He was quite the paradox; complex but relatable, a player but caring
too, he had secrets but was open and honest; he was the target of blackmail but
believed strongly in honor and integrity. Not to mention that he was muy atractivo. In case you didn’t
notice, he was my favorite character.
The ending is a tough one, but compared to the ending of Storm Siren I’m counting my lucky stars
that I got off easy. I look forward to the next book, to see what will happen
next in this story.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through the
Fiction Guild. I was not required to give a positive review and all views and
opinions expressed are my own.
