Nominate for Teens’ Top 10: Yes
Cover: The cover was terrible and it did not reflect the book in the slightest. I hope it has been redesigned because it masked a wonderful book with a boring cover.
Recommend: Yes
Convince us to read the book: The book is made to keep you on your toes. It questions the meaning of "science" and makes us wonder if our science experiments have gone too far. It is a thrill to read and you cannot put it down.
Compelling Aspect of the Book: The most compelling aspect of the entire book was the "on your seat" writing that kept you hooked. The chapters were beautifully written to leave the reader always wanting more.
