The Hive (YA)

Cassie has always believed in social media so when the Hive came about it seemed natural and right as well.  The hive was the power of the people on social media to police themselves if someone got so many dislikes than they would be doled out a punishment that the Hive (the people of social media) would implement.  The more the dislikes the worse the punishment and the longer it can go on, but most people got a level one or two which would be something small and would have to be done within one to two days. That is until Cassie made a joke on social media and found out a lot of people found it more mean than funny like her and she was the first to get a level six punishment, now she is on the run. 
This was a fun book on so many levels, but mostly I can easily see some form of this coming in the future, it has been the center of many shows and brought up in some books lately, but not to this extent.  This book makes social media  scary even terrifying.  I just read for fun so I didn't read to much into it other than what was there and that was exciting, suspenseful with twists and turns that kept me guessing and that make a great book for me.
