Amazing review for what seems to be an equally amazing book. As a fan of sci-fi stories, I am pretty sure this one is just perfect for me,especially since it portrays some of the real concerns of today's world and also because it features a strong female character. You are right, sometimes sci-fi stories overdo on the fiction part and makes the scientific part too futuristic. I am more comfortable with the ones where I can keep track of what's happening based in today's scientific knowledge. I hope this one will turn out to be one of those. Thanks so much for the review, really enjoyed it.

I perfectly agree with the author concerning the rating given though there missing words, that carries less weight. Good review.

Latest Review: Then Comes The Flood by John Payne

I sampled the book on Amazon. It is a sci-fi thriller. Jess is the main character who is a scientist in the chemistry field. She has a boss David who also loves her. The story starts with Jess using a scientific-tool that keeps account of her daily routine. As the story moves a little ahead, there comes a situation where David is being beaten up by a man who also starts chasing Jess. Personally, I did not find the book very engaging though as mentioned in the official review by Bluegreenmarina, I guess people who like sci-fi stories with a real-life touch might wish to go for this.

I'm not a fan of dystopian and futuristic stories, so I'll pass on this one. Great review though!
