Reach for this book when your teenager is struggling with the pressure to curate a perfect online image or is questioning how much of their true self they should reveal to others. It is a sophisticated science fiction mystery that serves as a mirror for the modern adolescent experience of living under constant social scrutiny. Through a high stakes dystopian lens, the story explores the heavy weight of expectations and the courage required to reclaim one's own identity from a system that wants to categorize every action. The story follows Rosie and her peers in a world where every move is monitored and identity is fragmented. As they navigate a complex web of corporate surveillance and personal secrets, the book touches on themes of trust, independence, and the ethical implications of technology. This is an ideal pick for parents of high schoolers who enjoy fast paced thrillers but also want to engage in deeper conversations about privacy, the ethics of human experimentation, and the importance of staying true to oneself in a world of digital masks.
