Being able to keep up with family and friends. (0 more)
It has gotten too political. (0 more)
I have a love/hate relationship with Facebook, I love the videos and random funny stuff that people post. As well as being able to keep up with family and friends I can't visit as much as I'd like to. But all the political ranting and name-calling is getting so old I sometimes find it hard to even look at the app on my phone.

A good addition to the series
More of the same with a more political twist. Does give glimpses into the variety of people on Purge night. If you like the others you'll like this one.

So so so so so so good! As a big geek myself I totally loved this, it was just a brilliant story and something great to read in the current political climate to get away.

I really enjoyed this book. It gave an interesting perspective on modern American politics. By modern I mean 1900 on pretty much. Money over people. It may be a bit to political for some people.
