I am reading the book Turnabout. This
book is about a group of old people and two scientists who are
experimenting on the older people. The scientists have named their
project turnabout because those who participate do a turnabout.
Turnabout is where the old people start to reverse their age and turn
young again. As each year passes they get one year younger. Dr. Reed and
Dr. Johnson are the scientists. Milly and Anny Beth are the main
characters in the book.
Milly has been alive 184 years now with the project
turnabout. She and Anny Beth are best friends and find themselves having
to move to Kentucky. Kentucky is where Milly grew up. They have to move
because A.J. Hazelwood is tracking Milly. A.J. Hazelwood is a distant
relative of Milly's and also a reporter. Milly can't meet her because
the experiment is secret.
Anny Beth is Milly's best friend. Before the project
she was married to a man named Richard. Richard died right after she was
brought into the project. Anny Beth has just admitted that she needed
Milly. Anny was married four times.
Mr. Johnson has just died. He took the shot to make
him stay seventy-five forever more. Two minutes later he was dead. He
shriveled up just like that. I would recommend this book to everyone.
Turnabout is sometimes difficult to follow, but a great book.
I am still reading the book Turnabout . At first
there were several old people in the project. Now all of them except
Anny Beth and Milly died. Also the scientists that started the
experiment died. Now the scientists are the original scientists
great-great grandson and granddaughter.
A.J. Hazelwood was the reporter from which Milly was
trying to hide from. When she and Any Beth moved to Kentucky they found
A.J. Hazelwood. When Milly followed her to Wal-Mart. At the checkout on
the board it said have a good day Ms. Hazelwood. After they found out it
was her they paid her a visit. She had been tracking Milly for a long
time. She had been tracking her because the date on the death
certificate was different then the day she supposedly died.
Anny Beth is also A.J. Hazelwood great -great
grandmother. One of Milly's great grandsons married one or Anny Beth's
great granddaughters. They found this out on a computer. In the century
they live in everything is so advanced. For example all they have to do
is tell their stove to cook scrambled eggs and it does. On the computers
they have, when you click on the Internet you can find out the size of
peoples bellybuttons.
All in all this is a great book even though people
die it isn't very sad. I thought is very entertaining but a little hard
to follow.
