So Yesterday So Yesterday by Scott Westerfield

Unbeknownst to most world, there is a pyramid of "cool", that starts, spreads and filters trends to society. At the top of the trend are Innovators, the off-kilter individuals who come up with new trends. Next are the Trendsetters, those who spot these trends and display introduce them to the public. Hunter, a "cool hunter" employed by major corporations to spot new fads, is one of these Trendsetters. A phone call about some mysteriously awesome new shoes leads him into an abandoned building and right into the middle of an engima, as he and his Innovator friend Jen rush to solve a kidnapping and discover the truth about the "cool" pyramid."So Yesterday" was an action-packed, fascinating read that got me thinking for days. Scott Westerfeld masterfully causes readers to examine fads and trends in a way they might not have before, while giving a commentary on American consumerism. This is a fun, thought-provoking book for all.
