REPLICA READER

In this book we FINALLY hear from Andy again!! Also another GREAT thing is that Eric warms up to Amy again!! The computer game Darklands is a very popular game. It turns out, when Andy and Amy(along with the other clones in Return Of The Perfect Girls) were on the island, the Organization placed a computer chip in their head. They can actually figure out what's inside the Amy's and Andy's minds!! The only way Amy and Andy can be safe is off of earth in a game-Darklands. It's really cool how they actually go into the game to stay safe. Eventually with Chris's help they escape safe, but the Martin's(Chris's foster parents) have a secret!! In the end Chris and Andy leave to go figure out what the Organization has planned. Tearfully, Amy says goodbye to two of her "boys" while one of them....(ERIC!!) lays a VERY kind reassuring hand on her shoulder. There's a new trilogy out...The first one Rewind is already released...Play is released June 11th and Fast Forward is on August 12th!! Hmm wonder what's going on with the "boys" and if Amy's heard from them?? Have Eric and Amy re-hooked up?(lol) Virtual Amy is a must-read!!

Nothing Is What It Seems!

In this intriguing book, Amy is left home with her mom's friend Monica and Monica's friend Sunshine, while Amy's mom goes on a trip. Amy's best friend Tasha goes on a skiing trip with her family, but they need to leave Eric, Tasha's older brother and Amy's ex-boyfriend, home because he has a broken arm.One night, Amy hears something being thrown at her window. She gets up, looks out, and sees that Andy has been throwing rocks at her window. She invites him inside and he tells her that he ran away from his "dad", who really turned out to be an evil person from the organization. He also tells her that all of the Amys and Andys who were on the island in book #18, Return Of The Perfect Girls, were implanted with a chip that helps the organization know where they are and what they're thinking. They have nowhere to run or hide except for a computer game called Darklands. In order to win the game, they have to go through many dangerous challenges. I gave this book 5 stars because it's one of my favorites in the series. I hated the ending, though. I almost cried when I read it. Don't worry, no one dies. But I won't give away anything else...

Amy enters a virtual world of fantasy and danger.

Amy has found out the truth about her friend Chris. She's given up Eric and is beginning to move on with her life. But she knows that the organization is after her and the clones more than ever because of the failed tropical island project to recruit all the clones in unleashing the organization's plan. After Andy warns her that they've been implanted with a chip and must be more careful than ever, Amy knows that there's only one place to hide - a game called Darklands. Downloaded into the virtual reality where nothing and no one is safe from the Intruders, Amy and Andy have to get herself out fast before it's too late. With Andy's help, she just may be able to escape. But escaping the game will mean winning Darklands, and Amy isn't so sure if that will be easy at all. And is this virtual world only a game - or does it hide a deeper motive? Replica #21: Virtual Amy is a very good and intriguing addition to Marilyn Kaye's unique Replica series. It is a more mature and important book, and I can't wait to read the upcoming Plague Trilogy. Readers who though the series has grown 'babyish' may find that this book deals with more mature matters and deepens the mystery of the entire series.

A thrilling new book from the Replica series.

Amy wonders what's so great about Darklands. The computer game is a hit with most teenagers, including Amy's friend Chris and her ex-boyfriend Eric. But Amy just doesn't get the appeal. Then Andy shows up. He warns her that the organization has put chips into the heads of all the clones, and is monitoring their every move. When Andy disappears, Amy doesn't know if he fled or was captured. She herself doesn't know where to run. The organization has the ability to track her everywhere on Earth. But what if she went to another world, one that didn't exist? Could they find her there? Amy hopes not, and wills herself into the world of Darklands. There she meets Andy, who has also fled into this computer world. But the game that seemed so boring to Amy in the world is all too frightening now that it's come to life. And whoever is playing the game in real life seems to be after Amy and Andy. Can they come out of the game alive and confront the person who's out to get them? I highly recommend this new Replica book to all fans of the series.
