Little Brother

by Cory Doctorow

Grade: Good

Almost, almost "All right". In fact, it was a bit close to being "Unfinished". But the computer stuff saved it. It was awesome!! All the computer stuff!! I wanna take computer science!! And I'm scared half to death that I'll be horrible at it.

What made it almost "All right" was the horrible school-ish culture: scenes I had to skip, jabs at anti-evolutionists and anti-global warming-ists. It reminded me of sometimes of the awesome passion you get in Catholicism, but more...sneering.

Phrase to look up: esprit d'escalier.
