Inconsequential: not important or significant.
Synonyms: insignificant, unimportant, nonessential, irrelevant 

In the world of genetic mutation, Gypsy’s talent of knowing a person’s age of death is considered a failure. Her peers, the other Cavies, have powers that range from curdling a blood still in the vein to being able to overhear a conversation taking place three miles away, but when they’re taken from the sanctuary where they grew up and forced into the real world, Gypsy, with her all-but-invisible gift, is the one with the advantage.
The only one who’s safe, if the world finds out what they can do. 

When the Cavies are attacked and inoculated with an unidentified virus, that illusion is shattered. Whatever was attached to the virus causes their abilities to change. Grow. In some cases, to escape their control. 

Gypsy dreamed of normal high school, normal friends, a normal life, for years. Instead, the Cavies are sucked under a sea of government intrigue, weaponized genetic mutation, and crushing secrets that will reframe everything they’ve ever been told about how their "talents" came to be in the first place. 

When they find out one of their own has been appropriated by the government, mistreated and forced to run dangerous missions, their desire for information becomes a pressing need. With only a series of guesses about their origins, the path to the truth becomes quickly littered with friends, enemies, and in the end, the Cavies ability to trust anyone at all.

[Top Ten Tuesday] Books on my Summer TBR List

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted at The Broke and The Bookish.

This Week’s Topic: Books on my Summer TBR List. This kind of feels the same as the topic a couple of weeks ago which I edited as Books That Will Be in My School Bag This Semester (and so far one of those have been in my bag and the other one is currently in my bag :D).

So this list for me feels like an edited version of that earlier post since I’ve slashed out two of them and I’ve done some rethinking on some of the books I’ve listed earlier. Add to that the newly acquired books I have for review. SO here’s my current TBR List!
