Title & Author:         The Neptune Project by Polly Holyoke

Impression:        Excellent

Recommend:      Yes

Favorite part: I enjoyed the part when the Neptune kids went to the smugglers' makeshift village in order to obtain more spear darts. This part was exciting and added more depth to the idea of dystopian future.

Favorite Character:     My favorite character was Robry because he was always very upbeat even though he was in a serious situation. Robry had a strong spirit despite being one of the youngest kids.

Summary:      Long into the future with little hope for human survival a group of scientists decide to genetically alter children so that they can one day live deep in the ocean. Nere, and her friends must sink or swim if they want to make it to the underwater colony and stay safe. This is an exhilarating underwater adventure.

Additional Feedback:           I would recommend this book to any person who enjoyed the Hunger Games trilogy. The Neptune Project has a similar feel to it and I really enjoyed reading it. I'm sure you will too.
