( ) 'The Store' is a massive on-line company that controls much of what the US wants to buy with its cheap prices and swift delivery by drones. When Jacob and Megan Brandeis’s latest book is declined by 'The Store', they get the idea of going undercover. Jacob and Megan are hired by 'The Store' and move their family to New Berg, Nebraska. At first, their new surroundings seem perfect – a smart house, nice neighbours and their two kids are happy at their new school but Jacob and Megan soon realize that their environment has a Stepford-ish vibe. Everyone and everything is too perfect. This book is creepy because the premise is very real. The convenience of the internet is at our fingertips. We can search and find information on anything online. We can order anything online. But the drawback is that our every step is being tracked and monitored. Every online search tells the world a little more about you. That information can be used against you. This book is a very easy and fast read, with a quick pace. However, it is rather let down by some rather cardboard characters, it lacked a little malice and whilst the book was creepy and the ending was a bit of a surprise it also felt just a little too neat as if the author's had run out of ideas. Overall OK but no banana. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
