The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff

4.0

Mackie Doyle's mother tried to protect her child. But the scissors and metal couldn't keep him in his crib, and he was replaced. The replacement (who they continued to call Mackie) can't stand to be around metal, and he is slowly dying. The town of Gentry is unable to keep their children, who are replaced with monsters that die within days. This story is very creatively crafted and a bit spooky.
