A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW | Reviewed by: PennyAsh
Okay. Primarily this is a science fiction book with lots of romance and it's a page-turner thriller. I sat up until almost three in the morning reading this book because I couldn't put it down.
Brynn Chapman has written a well-researched book that takes the fledgling science of cloning and genetics just a step further. Project Mendel will reach out grab you, suck you right into the story, and scare the pants off you. I loved it. You will root for the heroes and heroines, some of it will be difficult to read, and it will make you cry and a lot of it will make you think. There were a few small glitches and a loose end or two I'd like to have seen tied up but they don't take anything away from the story. I give this one a solid 5 and a recommended read.
