Thoroughly enjoyed this one! Loved getting to know the secondary characters more.
Thank you to Mariner Books for a free Netgalley.
This was fun. It did not feel as solid as the last two full novels, but it was entertaining. The narration was still very much the same-- in a good way. I almost just think this character and story need full novels.
Honestly, I cannot even pinpoint why this didn't fully work for me while the previous two did. Still recommend. BUt if this is your first by this author, read the others first.

I love MC's newer books. So I am officially going through her backlist. I enjoyed this one.
Thank you to the publisher for a netgalley.
Honestly, John Marrs could be one of my most fav authors.
I enjoy his thriller/suspense books, but I think his speculative fictions are my favorite. In The Family Experiment, we are dumped back into the time when every move is controlled by the government. Except this time, we are watching people compete with a fake, AI child. Of course, each couple has their secrets. And Marrs releases them in the most careful way.
I could not put this one down once I started, and I highly recommend like I do 98% of his other books!

Thank you to Libro FM for an audio of this one.
Ok. I did not love Leave the World Behind. It felt anticlimactic. But after reading the premise of this one, I figured why not.
And now I ask myself why? The characters were one dimensional. Brooke is absolutely unlikable, and while I do not mind an unlikable character, she takes such a quick change in personality. I am unsure who Brooke really is as a person. Which made this novel just meh.
