Partials

Kira lives in a world where 99.9% of the population has been killed by a disease. The country has just lost a war to an engineered species called Partials who turned on the humans. Only a handful of humans are living on Long Island under increasingly harsh conditions. And worst of all- no one is able to keep new babies alive- they die as soon as they are born. The Senate has implemented the Hope Act- which makes it a law for everyone who is sixteen to be pregnant as often as possible. A splinter group called the Voice is viciously opposed to this act and actively fights the Senate. Along with the impending Partial attacks, all is not well in Kira's world. Kira is a medic and works in the hospital. When her best friend gets pregnant, Kira is determined that Madison's baby will live. She convinces her friends to help her capture a Partial so she can study it's blood and come up with a cure for RM. Of course, she runs into many obstacles and learns some terrifying things about the Senate, the Partials and even herself. Who is she? What does her blood tell her? And who are her real enemies? When she meets Samm- a Partial, she must decide who to trust. This was a good book. It was an interesting take on what a society would do in the face of impending extinction. It leaves you hanging in the end with the promise of an inevitable love triangle in the future as Kira decides where she fits in and what she wants from life. She leaves on a quest to discover the truth behind the disease and the company who may have created it- and her. Happy reading my friends!
