This book is captivating. I read it in less than 12 hours and I would have read it much faster if I wasn't minding a baby. The story quickly sucked me in and I found myself going through a roller coaster of emotions. My sympathy for the oppressed and hatred for the oppressors was interspersed with loud laughter at the book's funny passages. Most dystopian books point to a bleak future but Electronic gags shows that there is hope of defeating even the most oppressive and sophisticated governments. It also teaches us not to judge people by their looks. Freddie was overweight and when Jennifer was told that Freddie would be his partner in the death tournament, she thought he would slow her down. But in their fight for survival in death tournament, Freddie proves to be the strongest man Jennifer had ever met. Keep it up Mr Writer.
