About this ebook
Maddie lives in a world where everything is done on the computer. Whether it’s to go to school or on a date, people don’t venture out of their home. There’s really no need. For the most part, Maddie’s okay with the solitary, digital life—until she meets Justin. Justin likes being with people. He enjoys the physical closeness of face-to-face interactions. People aren’t meant to be alone, he tells her.
Suddenly, Maddie feels something awakening inside her—a feeling that maybe there is a different, better way to live. But with society and her parents telling her otherwise, Maddie is going to have to learn to stand up for herself if she wants to change the path her life is taking.
In this not-so-brave new world, two young people struggle to carve out their own space.

I have read and am a little more than obsessed with this trio of books, I'm not really a bookworm but these books absolutely pull you in as best as any good read and offer a good exploration opportunity with complex ideology with a little light romance and connection.

I'm using my step dad's account an all but this is actually the first book that I have ever read probably in 2015. I have been re reading this book so many times and I just can't get enough of it. I honestly love all the three books and I have to say I'm quite actually addicted to all of it.
