I've been seeing this book more & more around the blog world. It sounds like such a great/interesting read. I love how they see themselves on FB in the future-how crazy would that be?! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe plot itself was a little rushed at the end and weak in comparison to the nostalgia and social commentary. Also, after all of their antics in trying to change and shape their futures, I felt like at the end it would have been nice to have a page telling what really did happen to everyone in the future based on the actions they all took throughout the book.
