The Body Electric by Beth Revis

3.0

Beth Revis always creates strong characters but there was something about this that just fell a little flat for me. I love a good sci-fi story, but although the world building was good I didn't actually like the science fiction aspect. It felt a little too far fetched, a good sci fi might be wild but it has to at least believably get us there and I didn't feel like this did it. I also didn't love the dead father aspect. It always feels vaguely toxic and unhealthy when dead family members start popping up as ghosts or memories, etc. I think most people will really like this and it was well-written. it just wasn't for me.
