When I read the description of this book, I was incredibly intrigued by the concept - and this continued as I read the book. The idea of 'designer babies' does not seem too far fetched into todays age, which I think added to the almost creepiness of this book. I really enjoyed the different perspectives throughout the story and felt like we got to know each character really well. The twists and turns were unexpected and kept me hooked throughout. The only reason I didn't give it a full 5 was I felt like it was a little rushed towards the end, but I still enjoyed it thoroughly. If you like mystery/sci-fi books, this will definitely be for you. 
Thank you NetGalley and The Quick Brown Fox & Co for the ARC.
