User Unverified by Lisa M. Jordan
In a world where your social score decides your survival, Taylor is stuck in four-star hell-too low to live comfortably, too high to disappear.
Then a mysterious five-star review from a ghost account changes everything. Taylor's rating skyrockets, unlocking perks and privileges-but also dragging them into a sinister web of surveillance, algorithmic manipulation, and shadowy rebels fighting to expose the system's dark truth.
Caught between breaking free or submitting completely, Taylor must decide how much of themselves they're willing to trade for a chance at survival.
User Unverified is a dark dystopian psychological thriller about control, identity, and the price of validation. If you loved Black Mirror and Nosedive, get ready for a brutal, gut-punch narrative that will haunt you long after the last page.
