Elissa’s life
has taken a turn for the worst, unexplained painful symptoms look to be leading
to brain surgery. When she discovers the real reason behind her illness, it
puts Elissa on a path she never thought she would take. A path that will force
her to rely on her brother’s best friend and an uncontrollable girl while
running from the government, traveling though space, and discovering heartbreaking secrets.
This was
actually a fun sci-fi adventure! Students will enjoy the futuristic setting,
the creative plot (though very linear), and the fast pace. The cover art is eye-catching. Teachers will enjoy
the lack of swearing and the wholesome romance.
