I read the Lake House mini-series a few years back, so this
book seemed very familiar to me. It is not a continuation of that series, but
those books apparently sparked this series into being produced.
I am hoping that because a veterinarian was a main character
in the pervious series, we will continue to see Ella and her mother throughout
this one.
In this first installment, we get to meet Max and her “family”
of fellow kids. They are all very unique and have their own specialties. We got
to learn a bit about their personalities and were given a peak into where they
came from. I think that as the series goes on, we will learn more about their
original families and why they were given to The School to be given mutations.
I liked this book as a foundation, and I think the rest of
the series will only grow off of it. I want to know who controls the voice in
Max’s head and how exactly she is supposed to save the world.
I know the Erasers are supposed to add conflict, but I could
do without them.
4/5 stars

And really awful at the same time. Because what’s worse than knowing you want
something, besides knowing you can never have it?”
