I think this book will stay with me. I read it in spare moments while traveling, but I thought about it a ton.

I really liked the twists and turns of this novel. The narrator did a fantastic job bringing each character to life, and acting out more than just dialogue. I really loved the character arcs of Evelyn and Martine, and I was very satisfied with the ending. Evelyn as the narrator was rarely lovable, but she was brilliant and smart and so observant, and her moments of empathy were meaningful. This book was pretty science-heavy, but it never felt difficult to understand. I was riveted from start to finish!

3.0

A solid three stars.
It was a quick read, I flew through the book in days, however, I did expect something a bit more 'thrilling' or with a bit more depth.

I liked that the man was the one who was obsessed with having a baby, as it's usually women portrayed in this role. I didn't mind that the science was flimsy because I don't wanna be reading a science book!! 

I expected more from the 'plot twist' & ending which was a bit disappointing.

Overall, I didn't love the book but I didn't hate it either.
