Reach for this book when your teenager is wrestling with questions of autonomy, identity, or the feeling that their life is being controlled by parental expectations. It is a powerful tool for families navigating the transition from childhood to independent adulthood, particularly when a teen feels 'reconstructed' by others' choices. The story follows seventeen year old Jenna Fox as she wakes from a long coma with no memory, only to discover that her survival was bought at a staggering ethical price. As Jenna uncovers the truth about her bioengineered body, the narrative explores deep philosophical questions about what makes us human. It is ideal for mature teens who enjoy speculative fiction that mirrors real world anxieties about technology and bodily autonomy. Parents will appreciate how it facilitates complex discussions about medical ethics, the limits of parental love, and the importance of defining one's own soul, regardless of physical makeup.
