(3) YA After a fatal car accident, Lia's brain is downloaded into a mechanical body. As a "skinner"--unable to breathe, sleep, eat, age, or die--Lia is rejected by her family and classmates and struggles with loneliness and anger at her situation. This first entry of a trilogy is a nuanced, riveting consideration of what it means to be human.
