Great book, kept you interested throughout.
Certainly a thought starter as it relates to the next step in human evolution. One just has to wonder if this isn't the best future for the human race?
I enjoyed the book and as usual Dan Brown wrote another book where the words just flowed off the pages.

I didn't buy this book, I put it on hold at my library as an audio to listen while I worked out. I'd read enough reviews that said it was terrible, so I didn't want to invest.
Okay, while I was downloading, an interruption occurred, not unusual, but when I finally got all 15 parts (that is 15 hours of listening)I noticed that Part 1 was nestled between Part 13 and 14 - I must remember that . . . well, I forgot.
I listened to the first part one day then it went to part 14 and 15 over the next two workouts and to my surprise I felt complete. When I was finishing part 14 (which I thought was part 2) I was wondering why the one character had lost her hair - didn't matter since I got to the ending, I really didn't see the need to go back. Oh well. For a 3 hour abridged audio is was worth at least three stars.

One of the best yet! Really puts an ethical question in perspective.
I absolutely loved this book! At points the pandemic references felt a little on the nose, given the current climate, but this did change the fact that this book had me absolutely gripped from the very first page. Within seconds of finishing I ran upstairs to grab Origin from the shelf!
I actually had a strange feeling of De-Ja Vu through the first few hours of reading the book when everything felt SO familiar, despite being absolutely certain that I had never read this before. I even reached a particular scene where I knew what was going to happen next - when it them came true I was genuinely convinced I had experienced a premonition! So it was pretty disappointing when I relayed this to my partner to be informed that I knew what was happening because we had watched the film a few years ago! I have no recollection of watching the film (I was certain that there were only two movies ever released from this series), so I am now extremely excited to marathon the movie trilogy this weekend.
