News quickly spreads that there are Carls in dozens of cities around the world–everywhere from Beijing to Buenos Aires–and April, as their first documentarian, finds herself at the center of an intense international media spotlight. The next day April wakes up to a viral video and a new life. Delighted by its appearance and craftsmanship–like a ten-foot-tall Transformer wearing a suit of samurai armor–April and her friend Andy make a video with it, which Andy uploads to YouTube. Coming home from work at three a.m., twenty-three-year-old April May stumbles across a giant sculpture. Synopsis (From Goodreads): The Carls just appeared.

Series(?): The first (I think it will be a duology) “You can only do so much pretending before you become the thing you’re pretending to be.” – p71
