You get more than your money’s worth, with little details and attachments that you can explore. The book also fills you in on some more details from season 2 that you may have wondered about. The book itself looks exactly like a real journal, and if I didn’t know better- I would believe the pencil writing is real. You can tell a lot of work went into creating this, so if you’re a fan of the show I 100% recommend! Review: What can I say? This was better than gold to me. - Incredible find for a decade-long Mr. Robot fan. I am thrilled with the condition of the book, it was used but in good condition, as stated. The book needs to be held delicately but had all attached inserts and the hardcover was what showed any signs of wear or tear. The joy of holding a book you thought you'd never have a copy of is pretty unparalleled! Thanks to everyone that brought it to my hands for the price it was. Sometimes good things come to those who wait and also obsessively check the internet for any hope of finding a rare book.

Amazing in every way
This book is amazing! As a huge fan of the show I am absolutely in love with the book! It takes place after season 1, through the several month gap between the seasons, and into the season 2. So its probably best to wait to read this until after watching all of season 1 and 2 so as not to spoil anything. SEASON 1 AND 2 SPOILERS!!!!! The plot follows Elliot Alderson an antisocial, mentally unstable, hacker, who has just taken part in hacking the biggest conglomerate in the world and effectively put in motion a major redistribution of wealth that will equalize the classes and knock the big wig millionaires down a notch; but it didn't quite work out as planned. Now that things have not turned out perfectly and Elliot who had been having second thoughts has no memory of the night he initiated the hack, and his alter ego/dead imaginary father figure Mr. Robot refuses to tell him what happened. Following the hack which is called the 5/9 Hack, Elliot is arrested and sent to jail for a hack he did against his therapists boyfriend, which resulted in Elliot taking the mans dog, Flipper and forcing him to revel that he was cheating on his wife and using a fake name to see Krista, Elliot's therapist. During Elliot's stay in jail he keeps a journal, that he names Red Wheelbarrow, and writes in everyday several times a day to keep track of his movements and to monitor if Mr. Robot takes over leaving him with gaps in his memory. This journal delves into Elliot's mind in a way the show couldn't, it develops his character incredibly and really blurs the line between fiction and reality. This journal brings you through his struggles with Mr. Robot becoming violent towards him and the difficulties he faces simply as a lone prisoner dealing with gangs and other inmates. END OF SPOILERS So in conclusion if you enjoy the show and are interested in delving a little deeper into the mind of Elliot then this book is a must buy. The fact that it's written by the shows creator Sam Esmail means Elliot truly comes alive in the pages and there is no disconnect between the version of Elliot in the TV show and the version seen in this book.

A TREAT FOR ALL MR. ROBOT FANS!
A look into the PERSONAL thoughts of one of the most intriguing protagonists in television today? Uh, yes please! The character of Elliot Alderson is so relatable to me so the fact that Sam Esmail went and gave us this GIFT, Elliot's journal? I don't think I could thank him enough. I love how it's not just Elliot's thoughts in the journal, but Mr. Robot's as well. The contrast of the two is amazing and there's even another character who we didn't see much of in season 2 (unfortunately) who writes their commentary on Elliot and Mr. Robot's words as well! The journal is so realistic looking, with all kinds of clues, some of which will tie things from season 2 together and some of which that will no doubt tie into the upcoming season 3! If you love the show, get this journal. No, I'm not kidding.

Should you buy, 1 or 0?? Get it? 1 or 0?... Screw you guys
The amount of detail in this is awesome, I love it when the "as seen on [show title]" products are shown as much love as their in show props are shown. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it didn't read like Elliot wrote it. Like I imagine him saying it in his head as he wrote it, and it doesn't match how he talks or thinks in the show in my opinion. I'm not trying to rip on it, nor am I trying to discourage anyone from buying it. Just giving my two cents. It's a great read, and a lot of fun and I highly recommend it. Just be careful someone doesn't find it out of context and think you're a psycho, that's how real it looks.
