Starters (Starters #1) By: Lissa Price

Starters by Lissa Price
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Callie her little brother Tyler and her friend Michael are children who lost their parents in the Spores War and have no one to claim them and be their guardian. Children like Callie live in abandon bulidings and eat whatever they can find on the streets. Callie is a very strong person that grows up very fast to take care of her little brother. She has no choice, she is all he has now.

Callie's little brother Tyler is sick and needs medicine, they have no money. Callie hears about a place called Prime Destinations where young people can donate their bodies so that the old people can rent them and become them so that they can be young again. Callie rents her body out and meets other renters who are trying to find out what Prime Destination is up to. The renters that she meets are trying to find out what Prime Destination did with their grandchildren who also rented out their bodies like Callie did hers.

Prime Destination place a neurochip in Callie's head that allows the renter to take over her body. The neurochip malfunctions and this is how she becomes her renter. She discovers that her renter whats to do more with body than just be young again. Callie's renter plans on using her body to kill the senator. She meets Blake the senator's grandson who is a normal teenager in her body but as the renter and falls in love with him

I recieved Starters from Random House Books, my first paperback ARC. I loved Starters it was very different than anything that I have read. I love how Callie stepped up to take care of her little brother. How she became a parent when she should have been going out on dates and to parties like any teenager normally would be doing. How she wanted to help the other donor's and stop Prime Deatination from taking over their lives. Will Callie stop Prime Destination from taking the young peoples lives from them? You'll just have to read Starters to find out.

On My Wishlist Week #1:

Goodreads synopsis:
Leigh has been married to a Hawthorne for a decade, but never knew the family secret: the Hawthornes are witches. When the dynamic Preacher Cody instigates a new world-wide witch hunt, Leigh must choose sides. Will she stand with her husband and children, or will she run? This isn't the first witch hunt the Hawthornes have faced, but it could be their last. Will anyone survive?

A classic novel, updated for the 21st Century!

My reason for choosing Witch Hunt is I like reading almost anything about witches and the Salem Witch Trails. I am always hoping to learn something new about the trails. I've also read some great reviews on Goodreads. Have you read Witch Hunt? What did you think? Please leave comment and let me know. Thanks.
