Shadow Me (Shatter Me, #4.5)

by Tahereh Mafi

The internet was one of the first things The Reestablishment took away, and without it the world became—in an instant—a bigger, scarier place. Everything was harder. Everyone felt helpless. I don’t think anyone realized just how much we relied on the internet for literally everything until the lights went off. Computers and phones were taken away. Destroyed. Hackers were found and publicly hanged.

And then The Reestablishment tore families apart. On purpose. In the beginning they pretended they were doing it for the good of humanity.

That sounds scarily familiar 😔
