Girl Gone Viral
Girl Gone Viral | Arvin Ahmadi
The inventive and hauntingly timely story of a seventeen-year-old coder's catapult to stardom, reminiscent of The Social Network with a Ready Player One twist. For seventeen-year-old Opal Hopper, code is magic. She builds entire worlds from scratch: Mars craters, shimmering lakes, any virtual experience her heart desires. But she can't code her dad back into her life. When he disappeared after her tenth birthday, leaving only a cryptic note, Opal tried desperately to find him. And when he never turned up, she enrolled at a boarding school for technical prodigies and tried to forget. Until now. Because WAVE, the world's biggest virtual reality platform, has announced a contest where the winner gets to meet its billionaire founder. The same billionaire who worked closely with Opal's dad. The one she always believed might know where he went. The one who maybe even murdered him. What begins as a small data hack to win the contest spirals out of control when Opal goes viral, digging her deeper into a hole of lies, hacks, and manipulation. How far will Opal go for the answers--or is it the attention--she's wanted for years?

This started off quite well but has become rather boring now. DNF @ 40%.

I really enjoyed reading this book, because I loved the character development Opal goes through. I liked how the MC stood up for the truth, and made many mistakes but learnt from them. I liked that the plot was mysterious however the mystery doesn't really go anywhere. I liked the themes this book discusses, such as mental health, advancements in technology and privacy. I liked ths world building and virtual reality too, especially the shows.
