Personal Opinion
This is a classic I believe (Ghost in the Shell, if the Japanese name doesn’t ring a bell), and a very challenging read I expect. I have set myself as a goal to read it this year and would love to have company! Plus it is set in 2029 so it is important to find out what’s going to happen soon.
