Jonathan Abernathy is a self-proclaimed loser . . . he’s behind on his debts, has no prospects, no friends, and no ambitions. But when a government loan forgiveness program offers him a literal dream job, he thinks he’s found his big break. If he can appear to be competent at his new job, entering the minds of middle-class workers while they sleep and removing the unsavory detritus of their waking lives from their unconscious, he might have a chance at a new life. As Abernathy finds his footing in this new role, reality and morality begin to warp around him.

Funny & Relatable
Revisado: 12-01-23
I love workplace novels and I love science fiction, so I was immediately drawn in by this premise! As someone who lives under the weight of a lot of student debt, I found this to be a great commentary that dismantles late stage capitalism in a way that felt comedically absurd and entertaining rather than tedious and self-righteously preachy.
I also found this author’s writing style to be a lot more humorous and funny than I thought it was going to be! It made me laugh out loud in several places throughout the book.
I think this plot is resonate for young gen-Z kids graduating college in 2023 who are desperately searching for a career that gives them financial security but also a sense of purpose in life! I feel that sums up Jonathan Abernathy in a nut shell!
Overall, great read! Highly highly recommend!!

In the future you can have any body you want—as long as you can afford it. But in a New York ravaged by climate change and repeat pandemics, Kobo is barely scraping by. He scouts the latest in gene-edited talent for Big Pharma-owned baseball teams, but his own cybernetics are a decade out of date and twin sister loan sharks are banging down his door. Things couldn't get much worse.

I got through this audiobook in three days! It was absolutely addictive! I love all the sci-fi biopunk dystopian worldbuilding that Michel does! This novel serves as a great social commentary on our modern culture’s obsession with body modification! A must read for all sci-fi fans everywhere!

Today's extremist violence surges into our lives from what seems like every direction - vehicles hurtling down city sidewalks; cyber-threats levied against political leaders and backed up with violence; automatic weapons unleashed on mall shoppers, students, and the faithful in houses of worship. As varied as the violent acts are the attackers themselves - neo-Nazis, white nationalists, the alt-right, InCels, and Islamist jihadists, to name just a few.

This is a powerful guide and handbook and almost a bible in a sense for those looking to reach out to friends and family who spew hateful ideologies. Open dialogue is always the answer! Piccolini and his incredibly heart wrenching and blood curdling life experiences should serve as a great asset to us all to better learn how to love & understand one another.

Loved it!! As a Star Wars fan myself, this was a fun way to revisit a franchise that I love and hear someone else so articulately explain my childhood fandom and the cinematic magic that is Star Wars!

George W. Bush (“Bush 43”) won office as a result of a highly contested election that was ultimately decided by the Supreme Court, dividing the country anew after the polarizing Clinton impeachment. The son of the forty-first president, George W. Bush sought to build a new, more powerful presidency. When terrorists struck the World Trade Center on 9/11, Bush used the full authority of his office to wage an unprecedented “war on terror.”

Samantha is a professional seductress and con artist with a heart of gold. If she talked about her work, she’d tell you she only pilfers organs for medical research and that she only takes one kidney, and she only steals those kidneys from dishonest people. It’s hell on her social life. Abe is the doctor and Sam's partner in crime. He isn’t much of a criminal. Except for the kidney stealing. But he’s using that money to fund his research that he anticipates will be able to cure diabetes. So, all for a good cause...? You decide. Of course, it's hell on his social life.

I finished it all in one day! It was very addictive! I love that Audible is able to get actual famous people. I love Rachel Bloom in Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. I love Thomas Lennon in Reno 911! And of course I love Meg Ryan in You’ve Got Mail and Sleepless in Seattle! What an All-Star cast!

This classic memoir of the First World War is now a major motion picture starring Alicia Vikander and Kit Harington. In 1914 Vera Brittain was 20, and as war was declared she was preparing to study at Oxford. Four years later her life - and the lives of her whole generation - had changed in a way that would have been unimaginable in the tranquil prewar era.
