Going Green by Heather S. Ransom

5.0

How much of who we are is nature vs nurture? In a not so far future, nature, nurture, and genetic enhancements help shape how one high-schooler, Calyssa Brentwood, filters her world. How do these factors influence her decisions and how she navigates in and out of her social circles? This book is a fantastic read, with a blend of real world science, and what ifs that seem totally possible. Young adults will relate to being torn between family, friends, and discovering their guiding principles. Going Green is action packed while emphasizing the importance of empathy, an open mind, and an open heart.
