Review of 'Several People Are Typing' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

This book was LOL funny at parts, and I liked that the entire thing was written as a series of Slack messages. Kasulke did a good job capturing the ridiculousness of workplace conversation (both on topic and off) and the nuances of inside jokes and emojis. That alone could be enough to make an enjoyable reading experience, but he goes beyond that as this book tackles some bigger/existential questions, such as, "what does it mean to have a body?" and "where's the line between our physical and virtual presences?"

Would definitely read more by this original author.
