Description:
This satire offers a thought-provoking and scathing indictment that may prod readers to examine the more sinister possibilities of corporate- and
media-dominated culture. — PUBLISHERS WEEKLY (starred review)For Titus and his friends, it started out like any ordinary trip to the moon -
a chance to party during spring break and play with some stupid low-grav at the Ricochet Lounge. But that was before the crazy hacker caused all
their feeds to malfunction, sending them to the hospital to lie around with nothing inside their heads for days. And it was before Titus met Violet, a
beautiful, brainy teenage girl who has decided to fight the feed and its omnipresent ability to categorize human thoughts and desires. Following in
the footsteps of George Orwell, Anthony Burgess, and Kurt Vonnegut Jr., M. T. Anderson has created a not-so-brave new world — and a smart,
savage satire that has captivated readers with its view of an imagined future that veers unnervingly close to the here and now.

Like most book lovers, I have read more books than I could possibly count. I have spent the past 2.5 decades reading book after book after
book, specifically in the sci-fi and fantasy genres. Very few of these books have left as lasting an impression as Feed, a young adult sci-fi novel
from author, M.T. Anderson [...].A brief quip on Anderson – he was born and raised in Massachusetts and lives there today. He has been a radio
DJ and a college professor and currently sits on the board of Vermont College of Fine Arts and National Children’s Book and Literary Alliance.
Anderson has published over a dozen books since 1997.Feed takes place in the future…a future that isn’t too far away. All-powerful American
corporations are obsessed with controlling consumerism, by any means necessary and at the expense of everything else. The planet is ecologically
devastated, seemingly beyond repair, the mass production of goods too much for the planet to continue to handle.Despite environmental risks and
pleas from world’s leaders, American corporations continue to encourage consumerism. 73% of American citizens are connected to the feednet, a
digital network accessible via an implant in the brain called a feed. The feed gives consumers direct access to digital information, instant purchasing,
and if shared, memories of others. In return, consumer profiles are created for each individual, allowing the feed to cater its advertising to the needs
of that individual.Sounds a lot like the targeting advertising on desktop and mobile devices today, huh?What’s impressive is that Anderson wrote
this story back in 2002, before Facebook’s infamous newsfeed and before tech companies had enough consumer data to create the algorithms of
today that make ad tech intelligent. Some scifi geeks (me included) like to say that many a scifi idea has inspired many an inventor, and maybe
Feed is one of them. Google revolutionized modern intellectualism by making information so easily accessible, yes, but when Feed was published,
online advertising was NOTHING like what we see today…or in what Anderson depicted. That alone, fascinated me enough to keep reading.The
story follows Titus and Violet, a teenage couple that meet, by accident, on the Moon during spring break. They are caught in the crossfire of a feed
hack and wake up in a hospital. Their feeds have been shutdown for repair and their minds are quiet, forcing them to communicate the old
fashioned way, without private feed chats (m-chatting). Titus’s feed was installed when he was an infant, but Violet’s wasn’t installed until age 7.
Unlike any of his other friends, Violet questions the feed, the government, and their way of life. Refusing to allow the government to categorize her
based on her data, she decides to make it her mission to confuse her feed. Titus, in love, tags along.I’ll stop there before I start to give too much
away…but if I haven’t made it clear yet, READ THIS BOOK! As far as anti-consumerism books, this one is tops….I think it’s almost as good as
Fight Club. Where Fight Club takes place in present day, Feed’s setting is more technologically advanced, like Minority Report. If you like either
of those stories, you’ll like Feed, guaranteed.
