Book Review: Mila 2.0

Title: Mila 2.0

Author: Debra Driza

Genre: YA Sci-Fi

Book Blurb: 

Mila 2.0 is the first book in an electrifying sci-fi thriller series about a teenage girl who discovers that she is an experiment in artificial intelligence.

Mila was never meant to learn the truth about her identity. She was a girl living with her mother in a small Minnesota town. She was supposed to forget her past—that she was built in a secret computer science lab and programmed to do things real people would never do.

Now she has no choice but to run—from the dangerous operatives who want her terminated because she knows too much and from a mysterious group that wants to capture her alive and unlock her advanced technology. However, what Mila’s becoming is beyond anyone’s imagination, including her own, and it just might save her life.

Mila 2.0 is Debra Driza’s bold debut and the first book in a Bourne Identity-style trilogy that combines heart-pounding action with a riveting exploration of what it really means to be human. Fans of I Am Number Four will love Mila for who she is and what she longs to be—and a cliffhanger ending will leave them breathlessly awaiting the sequel.

Review:

Wow....I completely devoured Mila 2.0--a 470 page book--within a day. In one sitting. On a school night. Needless to say, I stayed up quite late catching up on homework (actually, I just finished an essay ten minutes ago that I should've started working on last night but didn't due to my little book indulgence...but that's besides the point.) If there is one thing I can praise about Mila 2.0, it would be Mila, the main character, herself.

Where do I begin to describe Mila's awesomeness? I simply loved her voice and narration! And watching her grow and change throughout the novel was amazing. At the beginning, Mila's just a normal teenage girl trying to survive high school.  Then she discovers she's a cyborg of some sorts...and the knowledge that she's not human is something that plagues Mila for much of the novel.

Throughout the book, readers will question themselves,
