It wasn't a horrible book. I liked the premise that these young people were out there starting a collective. Mack was oblivious though and due to that a lot of action takes place off the page. As a result the climax felt somewhat lacking. 

I also don't think this book will age well as the other inserted a few things, the 2016 election for example, that date it a bit. In my opinion  that should've been left out to give this a more evergreen feel.
