🎉 Happy book birthday to THE MOTHER CODE by Carole Stivers 🎉 . 🧬 . This book has been on my radar for awhile, and I can’t wait to read it! Thank you to @berkleypub for sending me a gifted copy ❤️ . 🧬 . The year is 2049. When a deadly non-viral agent intended for biowarfare spreads out of control, scientists must scramble to ensure the survival of the human race. They turn to their last resort, a plan to place genetically engineered children inside the cocoons of large-scale robots--to be incubated, birthed, and raised by machines. But there is yet one hope of preserving the human order--an intelligence programmed into these machines that renders each unique in its own right--the Mother Code. Kai is born in America's desert southwest, his only companion his robot Mother, Rho-Z. Equipped with the knowledge and motivations of a human mother, Rho-Z raises Kai and teaches him how to survive. But as children like Kai come of age, their Mothers transform too--in ways that were never predicted. When government survivors decide that the Mothers must be destroyed, Kai must make a choice. Will he break the bond he shares with Rho-Z? Or will he fight to save the only parent he has ever known? . 🧬 . #themothercode #carolestivers #berkleybooks #berkleypub #bookbirthday #pubday #coverlove #jennblogsbooks #bookstagram #Bibliophile #unitedbookstagram #bookobsessed #booksbooksbooks #lovetoread #allthebooks #bookphoto #booktography #bookflatlay #giftedbooks #sciencefiction #dystopianbook #prhpartner https://www.instagram.com/p/CEUxfL5FZoz/?igshid=ejyr66fy4qvf
