“We went to the moon to have fun, but the moon turned out to completely suck.” M.T. Anderson’s Feed is a mysterious book but yet, confusing in an oddly way. Feed was unlike any book I have ever read before because of the odd and confusing world the book takes place in.
The rating that I would give it would be 3 and a half stars because of a couple of things. At some points in the book, it was very confusing. The main character is Titus and he has a transmitter implanted directly into his brain, called a “Feed”. In the real world today, it is highly unlikely that a human being has one of these “feeds” but it is very interesting to know that this could happen in the very near future because of the developments of new technology. This makes Anderson’s writing style very unique but it might be sometimes hard to read. This book cusses a lot and it is recommend for ages 14 and up but that makes the book interesting to read. It is sometimes very humorous. The setting mostly takes place at the Moon. Yes that’s right, the Moon. Titus, the main character in the book, and his friends, go up there to party on the Moon. He knows all of the main attractions to eat and party because he is “feeded” with places in his brain. But when he meets Violet, a girl who cares about what’s happening to the world with all of these “Feeds” and she challenges everything Titus and his friends hold dear to. And she decides to fight the “feed”. This can connect to real-life situations in the world today. This is because sometimes, technology can be good and bad and it might make human beings a little less smart than before because humans rely on technology a whole lot today than in the past and that could be a problem.
My recommendations for this book is that is can teach you a lot of life lessons and it makes you realize that technology can be used for good and the after effects can be bad.
