Ada Castle, a teenager, finds herself attending the Genesis Institute, where descendants of exiled Renaissance masters practice long-lost arts and sciences. This school is advanced in technology and medicine, yet are unwilling to share with the rest of society. When a friend goes missing, Ada and a fellow (and good-looking) classmate must search for her friend all the while forcing her to choose between the family she loves or the school that has helped her figure out life and who she really is deep down.
This was much better than I expected. It was definitely a slow burn for me. At one point I wondered if I was still reading the same book? The last part was fast paced and very intriguing. This was a great fantasy novel that teen readers will love and list as one of their favorites.
