2021 book 205

 Tamara Shopsin's LaserWriter II

This is an interesting little novel about a young woman who gets a job at an Apple repair shop in 1994. There is not much plot to speak of (though there are some undercurrents), but it’s very evocative of a specific time and place. I enjoyed the characters and the bits about the history of Apple computers, but could have done without the scenes where printer parts talked to each other. Cool interstitial graphics, very nostalgic. A-/B+.
