Origins: The Fire by Debra Driza

"Heart-stopping and electric, MILA 2.0: Origins: The Fire contains a short prequel story and an excerpt to MILA 2.0, the first book in a riveting Bourne Identity–style trilogy by Debra Driza.
Mila can't remember anything before the fire that took her father's life. It's normal to have some memory loss after traumatic events, but Mila doesn't remember if she's ever learned to ride a bike, or if she's ever been in love. Nothing.
What she doesn't know is that she isn't supposed to remember—that she was built in a computer science lab and programmed to forget. Because if she remembers, she might discover her true identity.
The question is: If she relived the fire, what would she see?" -Goodreads.com

Even though I haven't read it (yet!) Origins made me even more excited for Mila 2.0 (I keep reading so many good things about it!). I like that going into Mila 2.0 I will now have more of a background story (well kind of) going into it. And since I'm betting it will suck me into the story as much as Origins did I will be pulling a all-nighter (or close to one) reading it.

4 stars.
