I read the Lake House mini-series a few years back, so this book seemed very familiar to me. It is not a continuation of that series, but those books apparently sparked this series into being produced.
I am hoping that because a veterinarian was a main character in the pervious series, we will continue to see Ella and her mother throughout this one.

In this first installment, we get to meet Max and her “family” of fellow kids. They are all very unique and have their own specialties. We got to learn a bit about their personalities and were given a peak into where they came from. I think that as the series goes on, we will learn more about their original families and why they were given to The School to be given mutations.

I liked this book as a foundation, and I think the rest of the series will only grow off of it. I want to know who controls the voice in Max’s head and how exactly she is supposed to save the world.

I know the Erasers are supposed to add conflict, but I could do without them.

4/5 stars

Memorable quote: “I wont lie to you – it felt really good. And really awful at the same time. Because what’s worse than knowing you want something, besides knowing you can never have it?”
