Shortly after she was born, Annora Jinx was diagnosed with a heart condition that, if left untreated, would ultimately kill her. The only way to survive it would be to take the life of an identical, innocent human being - a clone. Aria, the clone forced to be the one to die for Annora, is anxious to prove her worth through martyrdom. Somewhere along the lines, though, she faces the greatest challenge of finding something, or rather someone, to live for rather than die for. Someone she can't have.
Mishay England is a young adult, romance novelist. "The Host" is her debut novel, but you can expect to hear from her again since she is always coming up with new ideas. Her passion for writing novels began in eighth grade and has grown since then. When she isn’t writing, Mishay can be found hanging out with her dogs, listening to Taylor Swift, or buying blueberries from the local supermarket.
Another story that sucked me in from the beginning. Mishay has created a futuristic world that is outlandish and rogue while still being relatable and believable. Characters are easy to love (or hate) and you really develop a connection with them. Keeps you on your toes until the last word.
