It was 2000 and Amelia Hazelwood and Anny Beth Flix where each over the age of 100 and were simply waiting to die. On their deathbeds they each signed a form, oblivious to what they were agreeing to. A few months later, they are doing wonderful… they can hear, see, and move better. They are soon informed that they have received a PT-1 shot to make them younger each year and that so far it is working.
Now, in the year 2085 Melly and Anny Beth are teenagers and they will soon need someone to take care of them when they are younger. But they can’t trust anyone anymore even the agency who gave them a second chance at life.
This book was OK. It lacked the thrill that makes you never want to stop reading. On a scale of ten, it was a five.
