So, big shoutout to Cave for posting about this series on Facebook a few weeks ago. It's live/free in the Shonen Jump app right now and only on Chapter 3. I would love to discuss it with anyone else giving it a shot. The idea of reading a SJ Phonebook from 10 years in the future immediately grabbed my attention. Not to mention SJ is giving away One Piece will end by then! LoL!
The end of the first chapter will give you enough to dive into a good conversation on where we think this is going. I haven't read chapter 3 yet, gonna have to go knock that out real quick.

Wait. There's a Shounen Jump app? Is that available in the Google Play Store or do you have to get it from an outside source? Also, is this all in Japanese or would I be able to read it?

It's literally called "Shonen Jump" (why English people spell it wrong, don't ask me) and it's in the App Store and Google Play. VIZ will charge you a mere $1.99 a month for an almost endless supply of English language SJ manga. I haven't subscribed yet as this and the first few and last few chapters of anything popular are free. Totally worth it and makes it so easy to sneak in a 20 page chapter of manga in those 10 minutes before bed or those 5 minutes you are "using the bathroom". Ahahaha, not that I would know or anything.
Now go download it and let me know what you think of this one. Chapter 3 did not go how I was expecting it to......

It's actually kind of a golden age for manga, at the moment. A lot of publishers are making their manga free (the latest few chapters, anyway) to read on their website. Another example is Manga Plus, which is all of Shueisha's properties. I've been reading the latest chapters of My Hero Academia, The Promised Neverland, and Kimetsu no Yaiba (until it ended) there weekly.
If you subscribe to Crunchyroll, they have a modest selection of manga there, too.
If you want to read on a phone or tablet, I definitely recommend Tachiyomi.
