I liked how Lucia Ramirez followed in her parent's footstep and became a power engineer and she left her previous assignment when a co-worker stalked her. Now, she back to her original home on power island one where she played when she was eight years old. Her parents were dead and she hoped that she would be accepted into a family at her assigned cottage. Being alone in California in 2050 here humans tried to right the wrongs of fossil fuel and climate change, she stumbles upon someone stealing power and she tries to discover who and some one wants her dead! I hope I get a chance to continue this series as I am hooked! aucune critique | ajouter une critique

HTML: For better, for worse. In sickness and in health. It's a legal vow of care for families in 2050, a world beset by waves of climate-driven plagues. Power engineer Lucía Ramirez long ago lost her family to one—she'd give anything to take that vow. The Power Islands give humanity a fighting chance, but tending kelp farms and solar lilies is a lonely job. The housing AI found her a family match, saying she should fit right in with the Senegalese retraining expert who's a force of nature, the ex-Pandemic Corps cook with his own cozy channel, and even the writer who insists everything is stories, all the way down. This family of literal and metaphorical refugees could be the shelter she's seeking from her own personal storm. She needs this one to work. Then an unscheduled power outage and a missing turtle-bot crack open a mystery. Something isn't right on Power Island One, but every step she takes to solve it, someone else gets there first—and they're determined to make her unsee what she's seen. Lucía is an engineer, not a detective, but fixing this problem might cost her the one thing she truly needs: a home. When You Had Power is the first of four tightly-connected novels in a new hopepunk series. It's about our future, how society will shift and flex like a solar lily in the storms of our own making, and how breaks in the social fabric have to be expected, tended to, and healed. Because we're in this together, now more than ever before. .Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

With an original plot, stellar world building, and an engaging writing style, this book has a bit of something for everyone. The only thing that detracted from it for me was Joe. I think he's meant to come off as romantic – but to me he reads as creepy and stalkerish. ( )
