Placebo Junkies
by J.C. Carleson
I was so excited to read this book. After reading it, I am glad I did check it out but I am a little disappointed with it at the same time. In fact, I waivered between giving this book a three star or a four star rating. I finally decided on a four star. The reason for my hesitation on the rating is because while I found the story itself very intriguing and very realistic. Almost too scary how far people are willing to go for the price of money. It is like participating in these clinical trials is an addiction like drugs and alcohol. So I get why people would want to participate in these trials. Also if there were not people willing to try them than drug companies and other medical companies would not have their human drug testing trials before the final product is released in the markets.
My issue is that I did not become emotionally attached to Audie or any of the other test subjects. Even when things starting happening to the people in the story, I was sad for a moment but it passed as soon as I was done with that page. Plus, I appreciate that the author tried to fit a romance into the story, I thought it did not work or lend anything to the story as a whole.
