So, I just finished an amazingly awesome book called "Unwind" by Neal Shusterman. It is sooooo good! It's another one of those books in the future. It takes place after the second civil war over human rights. The result is that human life is protected until the age of thirteen. Between thirteen and eighteen, parents can choose to have their kid unwound, which is when all of their body parts and organs are harvested. So if someone were to lose an arm, they could just replace it with a harvested unwound's arm. This way, the unwound doesn't technically die, but is still alive. It's kind of hard to imagine, right?
I don't really want to do a summary, because I agree with Ficklemaster, it does give away a lot. ... And also, I read it about a week ago, and my brain tends to forget things quickly about books except about how good or bad they are. It would be hard to do a summary right now. But, yeah, it's crazy awesome and I think there's a series! I just haven't read them all yet, and this is the first book of Neal Shusterman that I've read. He seems to have a lot of futuristic ones like this.
Don't just stand there, run to the library!!!
Now.
Yes! Yes, yes, yes! An amazing book. I haven't read the rest of the series yet, but I loved the first one. A couple of my other friends have read it as well, and we all agree that it was pretty awesome. So, go ahead and read it. You won't regret it.
