True Life in Uncanny Valley by Deb CalettiMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Eleanor has no personal memories of her father, but she knows who he is. He is Hugo Harrison … the tech genius. She has started spying on her father’s new family and ends up being hired as the summer nanny for her half-brother. She now has an opportunity to learn more about her father, his family, and the life she didn’t have. Unfortunately, she must lie about who she is. Can Eleanor keep this secret from everyone, including her mother? What will she learn about her father and herself?
True Life in Uncanny Valley is a realistic fiction story that immerses readers in the thoughts and actions of a teen coming to terms with her own identity. The main character is also a comic fan who dabbles in comic art and each chapter begins with a comic panel. Although there are a few scenes that deal with sex, those sections are not graphic and would be appropriate for most teens. True Life of Uncanny Valley is a fun read for those who like realistic fiction, but it is not a quick read.
