90% GOOD....

I thought this book was pretty cool, it had the whole "future with no privacy or real reality" plotline like The Matrix or 1984. The story was great and the writing was excellent, but the names were a little hard to read and I thought the ending was bad. The book's ending was so up in the air that it might as well have not been there. but other than that the book was exceptional and I recommend it to anyone who liked The Matrix or 1984.
