Remake

By: Ilima Todd

Narrated by: Kirsten Potter

A future without family.

Nine is the ninth female born in her batch of ten females and ten males. By design, her life in Freedom Province is without complications or consequences. However, such freedom comes with a price. The Prime Maker is determined to keep that price a secret from the new batches of citizens that are born, nurtured, and raised androgynously.

But Nine isn't like every other batcher. She harbors indecision and worries about her upcoming Remake Day - her seventeenth birthday, the age when batchers fly to the Remake facility and have the freedom to choose and what they'll be.

When Nine discovers the truth about life outside of Freedom Province, including the secret plan of the Prime Maker, she is pulled between two worlds and two lives. Her decisions will test her courage, her heart, and her beliefs. Who can she trust? Who does she love? And most importantly, who will decide to be?

Too religious.

The heavy Christian messaging was really annoying and kind of made me want to stop listening. I probably won't buy the next book.

Loved it! Such a well done plot and characters!

I loved Ilima's first book Song for the Stars. And Remake was just as good, but of course totally different. It does not disappoint. Such a great adventure and interesting plot. She has a way of painting beautiful moments. Nothing feels contrived. It's almost like watching an amazing movie, but better. Well done!

Beautiful story!

What a beautiful book! I first read Ilima’s historical fiction about the Hawaiian Islands, “A Song for the Stars,” and loved, so much, it’s lyrical tenderness in the midst of fear and violence, that I started “Remake” without glancing at any reviews. When I discovered that it was about a dystopian society, I was at first disappointed: most of the dystopian books I have read are terribly negative and hopeless. But this was amazing! We needed to see the harsh structure of “Freedom City” to understand the true joy and freedom of family and nature outside with the “rebels.” There is softly a true God-centered view to be celebrated.

it was ok

It had a lot of potential to be a good book but I didn't like it
