Things have not been going well for Henry Milch. After a Saturday night clubbing in his beloved West Hollywood, he took one pill too many and ended up banished to Northern Lower Michigan to live on a farm with his ultraconservative grandmother. It was that or rehab. While working a part-time job for the local land conservancy, he stumbles across a dead body in the snow—as if things couldn’t get worse. But then, things take a turn for the better: There’s a reward for information leading to the man’s killer. All Henry has to do is find the murderer and claim the reward.

Loved it!
Going into this, I was a little nervous about the leukemia plot, but I seriously loved this Frankenstein retelling. I loved Jake’s inner thoughts and sense of humor about his entire life.
While the romance plot wasn’t as intense as I usually prefer, it was still sweet and I found myself invested. I was thoroughly intrigued the whole book and now I want a sequel to know how everything… continues.
The whole contemporary science take on Frankenstein just worked for me!

A Halloween must listen for lovers of YA fiction!
Thanks to my mother, I fell in love with the old horrors monarchs-Dracula, the wolfman, the mummy are among my 'heroes' but there is nothing I like better than Dr. Victor Frankenstein's monster! I was especially intrigued when as a young girl in the 70s, I discovered that the book, also known as the Modern Prometheus, was written by a woman (Mary Shelley)! I thought she was totally badass! So I will always be partial to this kind of story and Marshall Thornton's take on it is INCREDIBLE! Jake Margate has had terminal leukemia for five years and he's made his peace with the fact that he won't live to see his twentieth birthday. But his mother has found a doctor pursuing radical therapies. At the remote institute where he undergoes treatment, he does seem to get better. He even falls for a boy who is another patient at the clinic. But then there are other strange signs and symptoms that all is not well with him! Such as, why doesn't he have a pulse? And maggots?! WTF?! I LOVED it thoroughly and thought about it for days after finishing it! It creeped me out so delightfully! This book did NOT disappoint in ANY way and the audiobook incarnation was beautifully narrated by Jack Meloche! This made Halloween 2019 extra special for me!

This is the story of 17-year-old Prenna James, who immigrated to New York when she was 12. Except Prenna didn’t come from a different country. She came from a different time - a future where a mosquito-borne illness has mutated into a pandemic, killing millions and leaving the world in ruins. Prenna and the others who escaped to the present day must follow a strict set of rules: never reveal where they’re from, never interfere with history, and never, ever be intimate with anyone outside their community. Prenna does as she’s told, believing she can help prevent the plague that will one day ravage the Earth.

You're the proper single mum with a good head on your shoulders. I'm just the carefree British doctor passing through town and temporarily living in your converted garage until I head back to England. But here's the thing... for some bloody reason, I can't stop thinking about you in very inappropriate ways.
