WAUSEON—Continue “unwinding” at the Wauseon Public Library’s Science Fiction & Fantasy Book Discussion on Monday, December 16 at 6:30 p.m. The group will be discussing “Unwholly” by Neal Shusterman. “Unwholly” is the sequel to “Unwind” and the second book in the Unwind Dystology Series. The book discussion is free and open to everyone.
According to the book jacket, “Thanks to Connor, Lev, and Risa—and their high-profile revolt at Happy Jack Harvest Camp—people can no longer turn a blind eye to unwinding. Ridding society of troublesome teens while simultaneously providing much-needed tissues for transplant might be convenient, but its morality has finally been brought into question. However, unwinding has become big business, and there are powerful political and corporate interests that want to see it not only continue, but also expand to the unwinding of prisoners and the impoverished. Cam is a product of unwinding; made entirely out of the parts of other unwinds, he is a teen who does not technically exist. A futuristic Frankenstein, Cam struggles with a search for identity and meaning and wonders if a rewound being can have a soul. And when the actions of a sadistic bounty hunter cause Cam’s fate to become inextricably bound with the fates of Connor, Risa, and Lev, he’ll have to question humanity itself.”
