I like the complexity of the central character, who I thought Lottie had written extremely well. The show was created by Bryan Elsley, who co-created the teen drama Skins, and this is what he said about the series: "I think that the book has a very assured young adult tone to it. In the real world, the two girls become friends, but after Tess disappears Leila decides to assume her friend’s identity and in doing so is quickly drawn into unravelling the mystery behind her disappearance. While in Agora, Leila meets Tess, a cool and confident party girl who harbours a dark secret. The series is an adaptation of a novel by Lottie Moggach and this is the synopsis that was released: Kiss Me First tells the story of Leila, a lonely 17 year old girl who is addicted to a fictional online gaming site called Agora. Part of the story is set in a virtual reality world complete with avatars and in the real world. It originally aired in the UK and it looks like a Ready Player One-style murder mystery and something that you might see on Black Mirror. Netflix has released a trailer for an upcoming sci-fi series called Kiss Me First that's worth checking out.
