Jennifer's Review
It’s a good book. I really enjoyed it and could not put it down.
It’s about a girl named Grace who has a son that’s dying of Metagenesis and is offered a way to save him. She embarks on a dangerous journey with her ex best friend, Kay. Together the two of them try to make the best of the three week journey back in time about 80 years ago to find a “soul” donor. After learning of his name, they go searching for him, but there are people trying to stop them because those people know the horrible truth. However, Grace does not believe them.
Soon her friend leaves and she’s on her own.
Does she ever find her donor? Does she save her son, or does he eventually die? What is Metagenesis, and who created it?
I give this book 4 stars.
