A review by art1610
In Real Life by Cory Doctorow, Jen Wang

I'm disappointed by this book. It was really underwhelming and didn't really catch my attention. I finished it pretty quickly, and was just confused. The plot seemed so good, a kid who is sick, lives across the world from the main character who wants to help. But, we were introduced to him almost more than halfway through the book. I got bored, and just finished it to finish it, not because I wanted to.
The idea of having a strike made me a bit excited. Then, it worked out in a few pages, no fight or big twist.
In the end, I was not affected by this book at all...
