"...for reading, once begun, quickly becomes home and circle and court and family, and indeed, without narrative, I felt exiled from my own country. By the transport of books, that which is most foreign becomes one's familiar walks and avenues; while that which is most familiar is removed to delightful strangeness; and unmoving, one travels infinite causeways, immobile and thus unfettered."
— M.T. Anderson (The Pox Party)

The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson
This is one of those books that helps readers see that ethics aren't always a simple matter of right and wrong, good and bad, or left and right. Certain to prompt discussion or thought, especially in our era of genetic ethics.
