3.8 - What a WILD ride of a book! I suggest going into this one without knowing many details—although note that it’s not for the weak of stomach (gore). Scientist Evelyn has won an award for inventing the ability to create adult human clones—at the same moment her husband leaves her for another woman. Who is that woman? Buckle your seatbelt for many plot twists. This book is sci-fi and a bit thriller, while also packing in a lot of character building and introspection (some of which can be a little repetitive at times). I loved the unexpected turns the story and relationship building took between the main characters and will definitely be reading more from Sarah Gailey.
