What's Left of Me by Kat Zhang

Did you read The Host by Stephenie Meyer? I did and I was not a huge fan to be honest. I did not even see the movie because I was afraid it would make me like the story line. Well let me take that back, I enjoyed the idea of the book, just not the actual book itself. That happens a lot to me I am finding. Same thing happened with The Sookie Stackhouse Series (aka True Blood) And it is possible that it may happen with this book as well. But I wanted to share it because it is a little different from the typical Dystopian Y.A. novels I tend to read and share with you.

I want to check this book out because it sounds fascinating and the story line appeals to me, but I will be honest there are quite a few books that are on my reading list before I will have the opportunity to conquer this one. But here is the synopsis. 

Happy Reading!

                                                                           "I should not exist. But I do.

Eva and Addie started out the same way as everyone else—two souls woven together in one body, taking turns controlling their movements as they learned how to walk, how to sing, how to dance. But as they grew, so did the worried whispers. Why aren’t they settling? Why isn’t one of them fading? The doctors ran tests, the neighbors shied away, and their parents begged for more time. Finally Addie was pronounced healthy and Eva was declared gone. Except, she wasn’t . . .

For the past three years, Eva has clung to the remnants of her life. Only Addie knows she’s still there, trapped inside their body. Then one day, they discover there may be a way for Eva to move again. The risks are unimaginable-hybrids are considered a threat to society, so if they are caught, Addie and Eva will be locked away with the others. And yet . . . for a chance to smile, to twirl, to speak, Eva will do anything."
