Review of 'Inspection' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
After the terrifying horror found in Bird Box I was dying to read this book and had high hopes for more heart pounding terror. For that reason Inspection did not quite live up to my hopes.
In a bizarre experiment in which the hypothesis is that knowledge of the opposite sex somehow stifles genius, children who have been obtained by dubious means are kept totally ignorant of the real world, the opposite sex, and are led to believe they grew on trees. The first half of the book is devoted to the boys, and it is at the halfway point that we meet the girls who are raised separately just a stone's throw away. The pace is quite slow and even after the shocking (to them) discovery of the opposite sex there is not much action until the end.
I received an advance copy for review.
