I just finished reading Little Brother by BoingBoing.net's very own Cory Doctorow, and I must say I was floored by the by the scope of this "young adult" book.
This is some of the best near-future sci-fi I've read in a very long time. The political tone of the book and the ideas about how technology enriches the lives of those who use it and transparency in government are extremely thought provoking.
I would recommend to anyone, even those over 25 (wink,wink), to go out right now and buy the book.
Believe me, you will not be disappointed.
