About this listen

Sixteen-year-old Jimi knows people change, but nothing could prepare her for what's about to happen to her best friend, Del. Del is obsessed with becoming a chimera: a person who pays back-alley geneticists, known as "genies", to illegally splice animal genes into their own. The resulting physical changes have scared lawmakers into drafting legislation declaring chimeras officially nonpersons, so when Del goes missing, Jimi is desperate to find him before he alters himself forever.

As she tries to save him, Jimi must face down unscrupulous people and risk her own life, all while knowing that if getting spliced is the choice Del has made, it means he's leaving her behind forever.

It was great. Not expecting much but love concepts and electricity shortage forcing people back to cities and themes of discrimination. Well read and well written I really enjoyed this book

Pleasantly surprised

I would probably listen to this again. Hope to read the second one soon. Story isn't too complicated so I managed to get in some embroidery at the same time 😁
