Kokab hungers to be a Perfect in a world where her emotions are her greatest flaw. But when her planet faces extinction, her sympathy makes her the best ambassador to persuade humans to accept her people. Failure means invasion, but success means she will never become a Perfect. Ags dreams of graduating from the Academy and becoming a guardian of Earth.
Obsessed with all things human, she's eager to spend time on the unique planet. But when she uncovers an impending invasion, she's willing to lose everything, including herself, to stop it.
My
copper hair is gone, replaced with uneven strands that drop from my scalp in
203 shades of brown...I press my finger to my cheek, and my skin indents
against the pressure. So weak and malleable. My stomach drops. I am
changed, no longer an Almost. Not even a Different.
I
am human.
