The Candy House Review

The Candy House by Jennifer Egan

• Rate: 1.5 / 5
• Favorite Character: Lincoln the “counter”
• Least Favorite Character: Lou the boomer music producer

There were too many storylines that focused on everything BUT the revolutionary “Own Your Unconscious” technology. According to the book, people could upload the entirety of their past memories in exchange for the ability to view other people’s memories. I thought this book was going to be more of a sci-fi thing that explored people’s pasts and their secrets. Unfortunately, this was not the case.

Honestly, I got this book because the cover looked cool. So yeah, never judge a book by it’s cover.
