Catfishing on CatNet was tons of fun. It’s a not-quite-light YA about a helpful AI who just wants to look at cat pictures and also help their friends. In a way it’s the YA version of MurderBot. It includes some heavy themes, and they are generally handled well. Kritzer has a really good grip on chatroom language and managed to write all those parts good without “hello, fellow kids” vibes, which I appreciated a lot.
I'm currently behind on reviews, so don't be surprised if the recent reviews are a bit sparse.
