Jane Unwrapped by Leah & Kate Rooper
Genre: Young Adult, Mythological Fantasy
Publication: October 12th, 2015 by Entangled Publishing
Fluorine uranium carbon potassium. Jane’s experiment really went wrong this time. After a fatal accident, teen scientist Jane becomes the first modern-day…mummy.
Waking up in the Egyptian underworld without a heart certainly isn’t the best—especially when it means Anubis, god of embalming, has to devour her soul. Yuck. But when Jane meets the drop-dead gorgeous god, suddenly she's thinking this might not be the worst thing to happen.
And then Anubis asks her to do the impossible—just time-travel and kill King Tut. Well, every experiment has variables which can end in disaster… Jane just wishes she could decide whether she wants to strangle Anubis or kiss him.
Sunny's Review:
So we all know that I totally pick books based on the titles and covers. So when I heard about this one I was like "YAAAASSSSSS a mummy book!!! Love it." I am really glad that I did pick this one. It was a little out of the norm and it held my attention. If I had not had a ton of stuff going on this month I think I would have gotten through this book in a day. I was busy so it took like 3 days.
I love Greek mythology and when I was little I loved King Tut. I have never really paid attention to Egyptian mythology but from what I read in this book it is interesting. Jane was an interesting character. She basically lived her life for her future, never enjoying anything in the present. When she dies, she realizes all that she missed. At first you think that Anubis is a jerk and you don't really like him. As the book goes along you see that he is really a great, caring and fair god. At first I really liked Tut but then I started to dislike him. I was very back and forth on him.
All in all I think that if you like mythology, with a little romance and mystery this book is for you. I liked watching all the characters grow. I am giving this book 4.5 stars out of 5. Go get it!!!
