"So Yesterday" by Scott Westerfeld follows the story of a teenager named Hunter Braque, who lives in a world obsessed with the next big trend. Hunter is a trendsetter, able to spot what will become fashionable before it hits the mainstream. However, his life takes a turn when he stumbles upon a bizarre occurrence that involves a missing girl and a feral post-trend group. As he navigates the underground culture of his city, he finds himself questioning the fleeting nature of trends, identity, and connection in a society consumed by consumerism. The adventure challenges him to redefine what it means to truly belong. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
