The biomites can do anything. They can fix your bad vision. They can make your metabolism run faster. They can cure your cancer. They can even repair the severe injuries caused by deadly car accidents. But at what point do you stop being mostly human and become mostly nanobot?

Read the rest of my review at A Bookish Type. I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley for review consideration.

A wonderfully written book about what makes us human. Who gets to decide our fate? This book explores the limits of human existence and the power of modern technology. The basic plot is plausible and entirely possible. The characters are relatable and very well developed.
