Disjointed, confusing, mixed messages, undeveloped sub plots and characters, this story was difficult to follow. The beginning of the story was confusing in that you didn't really know who the enemy was, and why. The good guys were bad, the really bad guy was almost omnipotent. Then, as it unfolded, you finally think you've got the point (to return freedom of thought and will to people) but then to discover that wasn't truly the point. Finally it turned into some almost ridiculous maniacal plot of mass extermination that the protagonist had to stop. The sub plots--love, family, purpose--were a mess and this reader was constantly disappointed by the continuous disastrous turn of events.

Full review to come.
I deeply apologize, but life is a handful lately and I'm using all my free time to read, not review. I hope everybody understands.

In 2055 nanochips are placed in the human brain that can change a person’s religious beliefs or make them happy when they are sad. Not everyone likes having their emotions controlled.

There are groups out there who want to change the world and give everyone their freedom back. Eighteen year old Raissa sets out to change the world and help people take back their freedom.

The people that are helping Raissa change the world is not totally honest with her and things don’t turn out quite the way she thought they would. Raissa must change her game plan if she is going to save the people she has come to care about in a short time.

When I read the summary for Eden Chip I thought I have got to read this with all the technology found in it like nanochips place in a human brain and then being able to download software that can change the way you feel or even download a virus. I really enjoyed the baby making software now that was so cool.

Eden Chip when keep you on the edge of your seat just trying to figure out what is going on and where it is taking you next. It will keep you guess right up until the end and let me tell you that ending will blow your mind.

Eden Chip is for anyone who likes technology, software, viruses or just loves a great science fiction novel.

Ooo! This was soo freaking good. It was fast paced and had a well thought out premise.
I wasn't sure about it at first, but I'm glad I finished it.
Can't wait to read more from this author.

I would recommend this book to others. Set in 2055, the story centers on Raissa, Caleb, and Ashimov working in some way towards the creation or destruction of the next version chip. Each chapter tells the story from a different point of view and sometimes, the view shifts in the middle of a chapter and in the midst of a circumstance. I found this style of writing to be engaging and unique from all of the other stories I've read. The scene is shockingly realistic and leads to a grim reality towards the end of the novel. I found it difficult to follow all the 'ware' updates and I also found the love story a little cliche and predictable, but the descriptions and writing style made it a book I could not put down.
