The first Book of the Month for the year is a Knock Your Socks Off kind of book. It would probably be in my top 5 favorites for the year. Not the genre I normally read, but The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson is exceptional. The core of it is biomedical ethics that are pertinent to our times. The controversy surrounding the topic in the book is different from what gets the most attention in our time, but it will need to be considered at some point, since technology may very well head this direction before long. This is a book for both young adults and adults.
