This is a weird book to review. I really enjoyed this book and found myself wanting to read or listen to it. Near the end I was listening more since we had a lot going on. I did find myself going back to make sure that I didn't miss anything. The ending was not what I was expecting, yet it wrapped everything up.

Donna Barba Higuera is a good writer and really knows how to keep your attention.

I loved everything about this book. The storytelling was fascinating and the story was just perfect. Plus, this scientist's heart is happy because the author got all the science stuff right!
