Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Upgrade by Blake Crouch



In a not-too-distant future gene editing goes off the tracks and precipitates a global disaster.  Typical societal overreaction leads to the banning and criminalizing any kind of genetic research.  Logan Ramsay is the son of the scientist who engineered the global debacle.  He becomes an agent of the Gene Protection Agency who use draconian policing to deter any genetic research.

Logan has his personal demons to fight as he toes the line with his agency.   A bust goes awry, and Logan receives the brunt of the problem.

This book does take a hard look at our future and our willingness to put our collective heads in the sand when any uncomfortable societal ills rear their heads.

The author does a masterful job showing that unbridled intellect with no corresponding emotional safeguards can have devastating consequences.

I recommend the book.
