Auf ihrer Website erklärt Kate Jarvik Birch, ihre Liebe zum Schreiben sei in ihrer Kindheit erblüht. Was sie nicht erwähnt, ist, dass diese Leidenschaft in der Familie liegt. Ihre Mutter, Elaine Birch, arbeitete 30 Jahre als Journalistin, bevor sie eine Karriere als Bühnenautorin einschlug. 2011 wur...
Ella isn’t anyone’s pet anymore, but she’s certainly not free. After exposing the dark secrets about NuPet’s breeding program, forcing them to repeal the law that allowed genetically modified girls to be kept as pets, she thought girls like her would finally be free. She never dreamed that it woul...
Greedy corporate America, genetically engineered human beings being eradicated and a whistleblower of epic proportions. What's not to love about this series? If the buying and selling of engineered teenage girls in the first book wasn't creepy enough, just wait to see where this second book takes y...
There is something about books that just makes you enjoy them in the back of the subconscious, despite the excessive criticism your conscious mind has to offer. I haven't exactly named an effect for this, but I certainly know it is there. For example (and this is a rather overused one), The Hunge...
Freedom comes at a cost... Ella was genetically engineered to be the perfect pet—graceful, demure...and kept. In a daring move, she escaped her captivity and took refuge in Canada. But while she can think and act as she pleases, the life of a liberated pet is just as confining as the Congressman’s g...
After reading Perfected last year I immediately added the sequel to my wishlist on GoodReads. Quite unlike my TBR, my wishlist only holds a dozen or so books, making it quite special. I was very looking forward to this book. Ella now is in Canada, where keeping girls as pets is - luckily - not al...
As soon as the government passed legislation allowing humans to be genetically engineered and sold as pets, the rich and powerful rushed to own beautiful girls like Ella. Trained from birth to be graceful, demure, and perfect, these "family companions" enter their masters' homes prepared to live a l...
The idea behind this book is appalling, yet the story was intrigung. The American government passes a law that allows the uber wealthy to OWN genetically engineered girls as PETS. Sick, right? Perfected follows the, pretty predictable, story of pet Ella. Ella goes to live with a congressman and his...
this book and I have an odd sort of relationship with one another. I actually didn't mind the literal objectification of women - the way it was handled was good to me, nice and direct with how it was wrong to treat human beings as if you could own them simply because of your privilege. however, I di...
Wow. Sometimes a single word can sum it up and "wow" does that. Perfected is chilling, emotionally horrifying, and the implications are disturbing. And I loved everything about it! Ella has been genetically engineered to become the perfect showcase piece for the very wealthy. She has been trained ...
