Unwind


Conner, Risa and Lev could hardly have less in common, except a common future, or lack of one. They are all scheduled to be 'unwound', a process which means all of their pieces are separated and put into a different form, an arm goes there, an eye here. But really, they're still alive, just in different form. Or that's what everyone would like them to think... But Conner and Risa aren't so happy about being in a different form, however nice it sounds. Lev just gets swept up in the flow.

This is a pretty dark book, but it makes its point. Quite a few people are killed from backlash of actions taken. Conner gets into a lot of fights, he's kinda out of control.

This was an amazing book about non-violence, trust, relationships, hard choices, and the true meaning of death, life and the human soul. I thought it was beautiful.

I loved this book, the characters are real, especially Conner, who is amazing. I would definitely recommend this book, if the premise doesn't completely gross you out.
