Mary Modern by Camille DeAngelis

I cannot begin to describe how this book spoke to me.  Not the characters, or even the writing style, neither of which were really my cuppa, but the idea!  Oh, the idea!

I am writing this in March, 5 months after I finished it, and I STILL find myself contemplating some of the moral and ethical dilemmas raised by this plot, particularly in light of my past.  I LOVE that it made such an impact that I still vividly recall it months later, a rarity for me as voraciously as I consume books.

Not bad, not great.  Whole series could have probably been one book with less filler.

Fluffy nonsense for the book club.  I was shocked there were actual discussion questions for this.  Who knew?
