What if your phone really was sending you signs? When a perfectly ordinary man decides the news, his notifications, and his dog's tail wags are coded messages from the universe, life turns gloriously unhinged. Mia-equal parts girlfriend and reality-check-calls it delusion. Frosty (the Westie) calls it dinner time.From spreadsheet prophecies and Wi-Fi sabbaths to a neighborhood "apocalypse" involving one broken streetlight, our narrator tries to read fate into everything. He starts a newsletter, launches a sermon, and accidentally goes viral when the dog ruins his big moment. Somewhere between panic and punchlines, he discovers that maybe meaning isn't hidden in the noise-it's right there in the ordinary.Smart, warm, and painfully relatable, The Algorithm Told Me So skewers modern self-help and our obsession with "signs," while sneaking in a love story and a very good dog. Perfect for fans of Jenny Offill, Matt Haig, and anyone who's ever tried to optimize their soul with an app.You'll love this book if you enjoy: - Satire with heart (think: therapy meets sitcom)- Relationship comedy (deadpan partner; chaotic narrator)- Dogs who quietly derail human enlightenment- Short, cinematic chapters you can devour in one sitting "Hilarious and sneakily wise... a modern comedy of errors about believing everything your feed tells you."
