review 1: My friend works in our high school library had a upperclassmen suggest this book to her, and passed on the request to me! Overall this was a very adventurous and good book. Talking about math and technology in ways that you never knew could get inside your head. I suggest this book to almost anyone willing to read it. It's different and very interesting and keeps you wanting to keep understanding Tom's story.
review 2: It's a story about a boy who gets an iPhone thrown at his head from a building. The phone shatters and pieces of it get stuck in his brain, giving him the ability to electrocute people. Maybe a plot like that would be okay for younger kids, but this was obviously written for teens (it uses the F word over and over, and deals with very mature topi... morecs like gang rape, drugs, and violence). Spoiler alert: it ends with him making the bad guys' cell phones explode in their pockets, killing some of them and blowing one guy's butt cheek off. I couldn't tell if it was supposed to be funny or serious. less
