The Body Electric by Beth Revis
3.0
Oh man, that was A LOT of Science! And I'm not even complaining! I hope I have this when I was in Highschool. It might have gave me a boost to listen and not dozed off in science class. Okay! Reading The Body Electric is a huge step of me getting out of my comfort zone. See, I don't usually read Sci-Fi. I mean, there's some that I truly enjoyed and loved, but most of them I just tried then marked DNF. Its just not my cup of tea.
But Beth Revis is totally changing me. This is my first book from her and I'm instantly a fan. I'm pretty sure I'll be diving in to her trilogy soon because she's such an incredible writer and I have a feeling that I'll love the trilogy as well.
Ella is a feisty and smart character. Totally likeable and being in her head is such a smooth ride. She's flawed but makes smart choices and she's a caring and loving daughter! And absolutely not whiny. Ella can stand on her own and for that, I adore her. She makes the book so much easier to read. My heart broke for Jack. He is such a sweet guy! And being in his situation sucks and its great that the author didn't make the romance so cliche. Seriously, I'm relieved. Jack and Ella is a breath of fresh air.
The greatest part of this book is the science stuff. Yes, I just said that. It's amazing how it has an answer to everything questionable! It made the book so believable that I don't know whether to be impressed or scared (because you know, this might be our future!!) I guess, if I have a Jack then it'll be okay. Anyway, the explanations, the city descriptions, the science stuff... Beth Revis is a genius. That's the only explanation.
