Currently blasting through (because it's hard to put down) Qualityland by Marc Uwe Kling. A satirical but horrifying take on society that's fully dependent on algorithms. It follows a "useless" person around trying to seek meaning and the overt advertising throughout really feels too close to reality. It's a fun read I may finish in one day, it's well translated and a surprise to find in a dollar tree store.
Oohh that sounds cool, just put it on my wishlist!
Interesting premise. Going to look it up.
