                             Stop what you're doing right now and read this this book. THIS ONE.

       This book sucked me in and never let me go. Here's the synopsis (yes, that what the summary on the back of the book is called, aren't you glad I'm here to tell you interesting things like that?): 

Eighteen-year-old twins Adam and Amelia Dory learned the hard way to rely only on each other, growing up in a small town where they understood the meaning of coming from nothing. But everything changes when both are offered scholarships to Stanford University – and catapulted into the dazzling world of Silicon Valley, where anyone with a good enough idea can skyrocket to fame and fortune in the blink of an eye…

Amelia is almost as pretty as she is smart – almost. A shy girl and genius, she is happiest alone in the computer lab, but her brother has other plans for her talents: A new company that will be the next Silicon Valley hit, and will thrust Amelia into the spotlight whether she likes it or not. Where Amelia’s the brains, Adam’s the ambition – he sees the privileged lifestyle of the Silicon Valley kids and wants a piece of what they have. He especially wants a piece of Lisa Bristol, the stunning daughter of one of the Valley’s biggest tycoons.

As Adam and Amelia begin to hatch their new company, they find themselves going from nothing to the verge of everything seemingly overnight. But no amount of prestige can prepare them for the envy, backstabbing and cool calculation of their new powerful peers.

Welcome to Silicon Valley, where fortune, success – and betrayal – are only a breath away…

      Now, doesn't that sound delicious? I loved, loved, LOVED this book. I actually got so angry at the ending that I threw it against the wall and damaged it. And then I hated myself for damaging my pretty new book. But thankfully, there is a sequel, which I was unable to get because BARNES AND NOBLE DOESN'T FRACKING HAVE IT HE DAY I NEED IT. But really it's witty. It's nerdy. It's intelligent but still dramatic. And so, so addictive. Read it. DO IT.

Love and novel demolishing,
