After a bad accident Mira loses an arm, a leg, and part of
her face. Given unusual prosthetics that work with a chip in her brain, Mira
learns to do many of things she use to love. Soon, however, she starts hear
whispers like, “unfair advantage, ”robot,” and “cyborg.” Can Mira learn to fit
in? Will she be able to enjoy what she loves?
This is an engaging read that makes the reader think. The main
character is easy to relate to and sympathize with. Her struggles are realistic
and add a fun science fiction feel to the book. Fans of science fiction, coming
of age stories, and books dealing with overcoming obstacles will enjoy reading
this book.
