Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Manda

After reading the Uglies series by Scott Westerfeld, I was excited to read something else he'd written.  So Yesterday is about a Trendsetter named Hunter Braque.  He lives his life finding the next big thing, the next thing that will make him "cool".  He becomes friends with a Innovator named Jen and from then on they go on this wild ride to find Hunter's boss, whose gone missing and not get caught by the Anti-Client. All in all this was a thrill ride of a story.  Like the Uglies series, So Yesterday was another
fictional look into consumerism and trends.  I love that Westerfeld's writing is
geared towards someone with a mind and isn't just some brainless garbage. While being a great story, this book really makes you think about why you wear what you wear and why
fashion is the way that it is.  I definitely recommend this book to current fans of Scott Westerfeld and those reading his works for the first time who like to look outside the box.
