Reseña del libro "Call me Obie (en Inglés)"

Fifteen-year-old Obie hates the word "artificial." It has to be the Most Misunderstood Word of the Year 2100. The media puts it in front of anything. They started with artificial intelligence and now it goes with housing, law enforcement, and in Obie's case, her heart.Just because Obie's vital organ was 3D-printed doesn't mean that she's fake. She's simply misunderstood, especially by Humanists. They think that artificial organ recipients like her are an abomination, and that's why Obie can't let anyone know the truth about her heart.But when Humanists injure her best friend Mateo, Obie needs to step up. She decides to get him a 3D-printed replacement spleen in secret. In order to succeed, she becomes a black-market criminal, a high-tech healer, and an authority on love (or maybe not the last one so much). But what else can she do when organs are sold by Jonas, a blue-eyed genius who can't stand the system any more than her?Call Me Obie explores the future of discrimination and the timeless power of empathy and forgiveness, with a few comedic mishaps along the way. It is the tale of one young woman's coming-of-age in a future where nearly anything is medically possible and society must ask: When technology can modify humans, who gets to decide how?
