review 1: This young adult novel explores the concept of memory and how our memories direct our personalities. I requested this novel through Edelweiss based on the interesting premise and was not disappointed. Raised in a society in which a group of people have been genetically enhanced to carry their perfect memories outside of their brains, Genesis (Gena) has been taught that her perfect memory makes her superior to the normal Populace. The ruling Mementi formed the city of Havendale to find sanctuary and master their technological advancements. Their haven is threatened when thieves are stealing memory links leaving some Mementi without crucial memories. If this sounds confusing... it kind of is, but it is also fast-paced and completely fascinating. This is an intelligent e... morentry into young adult fiction with intelligent and courageous characters and a whole lot of action. Thank you to the publisher and Edelweiss for making this available for download.
review 2: Turn a concept that's as intricate and mysterious as a memory and change it to something tangible and everlasting, with a caper thrown in, and you have The Unhappening of Genesis Lee. Just the thought of losing your memory is scary, so when there's a society who can store their personal memories in jewelry, which can be easily stolen like any other item, it makes McArthur's sci-fi concept even more terrifying. The solid pacing, likable characters, and excellent psychology made this a blast to read. less
