After Erin Song's parents ban her from using her phone, TV, Internet and all her screens, she soon discovers mysterious, strange creatures and must foil their plot to take over Earth in this hilarious sci-fi graphic novel for tweens. Erin Song lives in a digital world. Everyone has a phone, a tablet, a computer-more screens than you can count. Even with a world of information at her fingertips, Erin can't figure out the secret to popularity at her clique-y junior high school. So when uber-popular Wendy asks for help cheating on a test, Erin jumps at the opportunity. This could be her big break! Unfortunately, she gets caught, and her parents ban her from all her devices. Suddenly, Erin Song is the only girl in the world who's not allowed to look at a screen. And that's when Erin notices something funny: small, furry aliens making humans disappear with a weird device Erin's never seen before. No one else notices them, though-except Erin's grandmother and two old men who run the local library. They've discovered that the aliens are using screens to control the human race, tricking them into thinking they aren't really there-and that anyone who's been abducted never existed. Now it's up to Erin and her grandmother to save the day! But without technology on their side, do they stand a chance?… (mehr)

I really enjoyed the bits about how elderly people and kids aren't always taken seriously, and when Erin was about to give up. The speech her grandma gave her was great.

Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.

Pretty serviceable art, and a fairly interesting storyline: aliens have invaded and managed to control our screens in order to brainwash humans into ignoring them. When Erin is grounded and banned from screens, she begins to see them, and realizes they've been abducting humans and running experiments for longer than she ever thought.

Unfortunately, Erin is incredibly annoying (though I suppose she's a normal teenager - obsessed with screens, obsessed with becoming popular, and rude to her grandmother and other elderly people), which really hampers my enjoyment of the book.

There are also two repeated pages that should be edited out. ( )

The main characters are a spunky teen and her grandmother. It's a kid friendly take on The Matrix with unplugging standing in for the red pill. The art is fun and engaging.

However, libraries are not dusty places filled with technophobic old people. Programs like Girls Who Code are taught in libraries. It's also the place where most people without home computers get access to the internet. My library is filled with kids and teens who only have access to the internet outside of school because we exist.

People in their 60's and 70's are able to use smartphones, tablets, and computers. The idea that everyone below a certain age is addicted to their screens and everyone above a certain age is afraid of technology is not the best one to put forward.
