Jinxed

De: Amy McCulloch

Narrado por: Catherine Ho

The Golden Compass for the digital age! When a coding star enters an elite technology academy, she discovers a world of competition, intrigue, and family secrets - plus a robotic companion that isn't what it seems.

Lacey Chu has always dreamed of working as an engineer for MONCHA, the biggest tech firm in the world and the company behind the "baku" - a customizable "pet" with all the capabilities of a smartphone. But when Lacey is rejected by the elite academy that promises that future, she's crushed.

One night, Lacey comes across the broken form of a highly advanced baku. After she repairs it, the cat-shaped baku she calls Jinx opens its eyes and somehow gets her into her dream school. But Jinx is different than any other baku she's ever seen.... He seems real.

As Lacey settles into life at school, competing with the best students in a battle of the bakus that tests her abilities, she learns that Jinx is part of a dangerous secret. Can Lacey hold on to Jinx and her dreams for the future?

BEST BOOK OF ALL TIME

This was my favorite book of all time, where is the second book???!!! Please read this!!!!!!!

Good

It was the best story I’ve ever heard
It is so good five stars for sure

LOVE THIS!!! (Mild spoiler warning)

It starts smooth as butter but closer to the end it gets more suspenceful and exiting! The beetle might be evil but im kinda scared of him after the cliffhanger. I really like how every baku has the same polite and sweet personality but not jinx! Unlike the others, he is funny, naughty, and sassy!

Great book

I liked the entire book and I read it in one day
but we neeeeeeeeed a third book

Really good book

I love this book because it makes me kinda sad but it’s happy and I love the cliffhanger it ends on.

BEST BOOK IN THE WORLD

this is the best book I have read IN YEARS I love it so much and you will to!!! Its about a time where instead of having smart phones we have bacus theese robotic Ananias’s that can do everything a phone can do and more!! Embark on the journey of a life time with a young Girl and her bacu!!

You have to read this book!!!

If you are interested in tech , you have to read this!!!It is very heartfelt!

Dude

This book was amazing. I really liked it and I really want there to be a part two it had a lot of twists and turns it was exciting the entire time.

A fun little romp

This was a decent story. Certainly interesting. I would say it’s probably a medium type of story, fun, different... but unfortunately I didn’t find it particularly engaging. That could just be me, though. I found it hard to concentrate on the storyline and had a hard time connecting with Lacy’s character. In fact, on several occasions i found myself annoyed with her. I really enjoyed Jinx’s character though...

I can’t decide if I will want to check out the second book when it comes out or not.
