Thanks to Connor, Lev, and Risa — and their high-profile revolt at Happy Jack Harvest Camp — people can no longer turn a blind eye to unwinding. Ridding society of troublesome teens while simultaneously providing much-needed tissues for transplant might be convenient, but its morality has finally been brought into question. However, unwinding has become big business, and there are powerful political and corporate interests that want to see it not only continue, but also expand to the unwinding of prisoners and the impoverished.

Cam is a product of unwinding; made entirely out of the parts of other unwinds, he is a teen who does not technically exist. A futuristic Frankenstein, Cam struggles with a search for identity and meaning and wonders if a rewound being can have a soul. And when the actions of a sadistic bounty hunter cause Cam’s fate to become inextricably bound with the fates of Connor, Risa, and Lev, he’ll have to question humanity itself.

Rife with action and suspense, this riveting companion to the perennially popular Unwind challenges assumptions about where life begins and ends—and what it means to live.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPRESS MY LOVE FOR THIS BOOK!!!

If Unwind has just enough everything for a dystopian story. Than UNWHOLLY (Unwind #2) HAS TOO MUCH OF EVERYTHING FOR A DYSTOPIAN STORY!

I am not kidding if I am going to say that this book is probably the most lovable and also creepiest book I ever read this year (or so far in 2012).

I STILL WANT TO MARRY ALL CHARACTERS in this book (maybe only Connor, Risa, Lev, and Hayden.. Plus the new character, Miracolina and maybe that good stranger at the end of the story).

NOT GOING TO GO SPOILERY..

I just wanna say that I LOVE EVERYTHING IN THIS BOOK!

E V E R Y T H I N G ! More than Unwind actually..

I LOVE ALL CHARACTERS! (the good and the bad, although I only want to marry the good one)

I LOVE THE STORY LINE! It's just perfect! The pace, the surprise, the flow, everything!

I LOVE THE DEVELOPMENT! The character and story development for this story are just perfect as well! The character, all of them are (as always) well-developed! and the story, what can I say other than that I LOVE IT!!

What else.. what else.. I don't know what else, the only thing I know, I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!

Even the romance, OMG!!! I just...... aaaahhhhh... I'm breathless and restless.. when I thought they'll be..... but then.... aaaaghhhh... I NEED THIRD BOOK NOW!!!!

I think I will make a video of my reaction for this book, probably there would be no words spoken in it, just me doing "oooohhhs... aaaaahhhsss.. and rolling on the floor.."

I will sleep hugging this book tonight..

and hoping that Mr. Neal Shusterman will not spend another five years for the next book to come out..

PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT!!! JUST SOLID FIVE GOLD STARS!!!

Ah, and I got this book in UK version cover.. so it's not technically matched with my US version cover of Unwind.. SOOOOOOOO because of my huge love for this book, I will purchase the US version one.. hah.. I love you book.. <3

Isn't it awesome??? It's Camus Comprix!!! (what or who is he? Read this book!)

Connor, Risa, and Lev are running for their lives.

The Second Civil War was fought over reproductive rights. The chilling resolution: Life is inviolable from the moment of conception until age thirteen. Between the ages of thirteen and eighteen, however, parents can have their child "unwound," whereby all of the child's organs are transplanted into different donors, so life doesn't technically end. Connor is too difficult for his parents to control. Risa, a ward of the state is not enough to be kept alive. And Lev is a tithe, a child conceived and raised to be unwound. Together, they may have a chance to escape and to survive.

This book is an example of a perfect dystopian story. 

Everything is in right portions. It has all elements that are needed in a dystopian book.

I love everything about this book. I have no complains other than that I wish this book would be thicker and longer also gave more details of the life of Connor, Risa, and Lev. I was so sad when I finished reading this, but then at the same moment am so happy that I read this recently so I don't have to wait for 5 years for the sequel to come out. XD

The story grabbed me from the start till the end. The pace and the plot of the story were perfect. And the most important thing of all was the characters! I LOVE THEM! I WANT TO MARRY ALL OF THEM! Connor, Risa, and Lev (also other characters). Their characters developed through out the story beautifully.

This was actually the first time I read a book that told a story from multi-perspectives. But it works just great for this book and I just couldn't help to love everything in it.

I can just go on and go on about how much I really love and enjoy reading this book.. So I really and strongly recommend you who read this post, if you haven't read this book, you should, darlings.. Otherwise, you just miss something reallllllyyyy good.

Now I am just wishing that Mr. Mailman will deliver the sequel of this book, Unwholly just in time.. :)
