It has a lot of good ideas, but the plot makes no sense. For example, two of the main characters have fathers who both served in WWII. Even Vietnam would have been a stretch.
It's still better than Ready Player One though.
Diamond Age is a better Neal Stephenson book

From the Google summary. Nice to know NS completely breaks GenAI from 44 years ago
"The Deliverator never deals in cash. To ensure his 30-minute guarantee, his car is essentially an electrified tank capable of firing a pound of bacon into the asteroid belt"

It's not much of a deal at $1.99. It's available for free from any library without a wait and you still have to put your time into consuming it.
If you have a large time budget and want to read this historical sci-fi, get it free from your local library app or use Libby for the audiobook
If you can only read one or a few sci-if books this year, spend the extra few bucks or register in a longer hold queue and try some Adrian Tchaikovsky
