Interesting, but felt like a short story rather than a novella. I'd also like to see more of the typo bit and have that come to more of a point.

A quick easily read book with lots of questions left at the end (which I love!)
I could figure out if the typos were intentional or not which I found bothered me through out. I am assume that they are but why? Obviously that was too deep for me to figure out.

I have no idea what happened in this book, but I've been thinking about it basically since I finished reading.

I liked the idea but the execution of the idea needs some work.

This was a fun and quick read. Future setting, fun concepts, and a strong love for typewriters shines through. Really cool.
