I'm Starting to Worry About This Black Box of Doom by Jason Pargin

4.0

This book is pretty funny but mostly at the start. Once it gets into Abbot’s backstory then I think it takes a more serious turn. This book has a lot left leaning ideas so if you are very conservative, you might not like it. The best part of the book for me was the social media aspects (Twitch stream conversations and Reddit posts) and the fact that Abbott has absolutely no idea that people are interested in where he is. Also, I love the idea that something as mundane as driving a package across country could develop all kinds of conspiracy theories. For negatives, Ether was a bit too preachy. And the parts where Abbott rants about women were a little too much for me.
