Sea Change by Susan Fletcher

Sea Change by Susan Fletcher

This is a coming of age story in the age of genetic manipulation.  Turtle was born differently by illegal genetic manipulation by her parents.   She is part of a community of different young people who have been  abandoned by their parents. The story deals with her attempted reintegration with her family.

Turtle meets Kai in a diving accident when both are scavenging.  The scene is set in a future where global warming is inundating low islands and coastlines.  Turtle has many longings, some for family and some for love.

You meet her friends and frenemies. Some are born differently, and some are normal.  The parental urge to provide their children a step above the competition leads to illegal genetic manipulations and some sad results.

The book has some romance but nothing graphic so it is suitable for younger readers.

I enjoyed it and recommend it.

This is an interesting look at our future.
