Seventeen-year-old Moxie has just been given an extraordinary to become the youngest human ever to receive eternal life. The physical body must be cast off, but it’s a small price to pay to live forever. Thrilled at first; doubts soon crop up. Her nannybot and friends are all in favor, but Moxie isn’t convinced and embarks on a journey of self-discovery. She must decide if her physical body is a worthless vestige like an appendix, or an integral part of who she is.
I really enjoyed the premise of this book - what happens if we take social media and VR wayyyyy too far, to the point that it completely replaces in-person human interactions? The author did a great job of making Moxie believable within her world, as well as showing just how fake that world is.
The only thing I didn't enjoy was the rushed ending. I'm hoping there'll be a sequel to tie up all the loose ends!
