Oh, Temi

Near-future London. It has become popular for folks to have a small implant that allows one access to a more robust social media experience-- Panopticon-- directly as an augmented reality. Moremi has the implant, and she can see inside the minds and dreams of others. When the British government plans to make the connection procedure compulsory, they promise Panopticon will end human suffering and usher in a perfect world. Orpheus, raised by a neo-Luddite father, questions everything. Orpheus and Moremi uncover the nefarious effects of the technology, but find themselves unable to agree on whether it should be destroyed or continued. -- adapted from back cover.

"A century ago, an astronomer discovered an Earth-like planet orbiting a nearby star. She predicted that one day humans would travel there to build a utopia. Today, ten astronauts are leaving everything behind to find it. Four are veterans of the twentieth century's space race. And six are teenagers who've trained for this mission most of their lives. It will take the team twenty-three years to reach Terra-Two. Twenty-three years locked in close quarters. Twenty-three years with no one to rely on but each other. Twenty-three years with no rescue possible, should something go wrong. And something always goes wrong"--From the publisher's web site.
