Reader reviewed by Leah



This book had a really good plot and i knew i had to read it because scott westerfeld is one of my favorite authors. Peeps is about Cal who is forced to live a life as a carrier for a deadly parasite. The parasite invades your body and makes you hate things you loved and forces you into a life of cannibalism and darkness. Peeps (people with the parasite) are all over and its Mile's job to make them better. Miles is a carrier of the parasite but is able to control his urges. He can't however ever kiss or be with a girl because that is how the parasite is passed. Miles struggles with this fact the most when he meets Lace, a curious journalist who will stop at nothing until she knows what is really going on. I learned a lot about parasites, sometimes more that i wanted to.
