Review of 'The knockoff' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

This was a fun read. Some of Imogen's "I understand technology" were a little unbelievable - she's in her 40s and works in the upper teirs of the media world - but the book managed to make the villain villainous without resorting to "technology bad. Millennials selfish" which was refreshing.
