Cadaver & Queen by Alisa Kwitney
Releases: February 27th 2018
When Lizzie Lavenza
enrolled at Ingold as its first female medical student, she knew she
wouldn't have an easy time. From class demands to being an outsider
among her male cohorts, she'll have to go above and beyond to prove
herself. So when she stumbles across what appears to be a faulty
Bio-mechanical--one of the mechanized cadavers created to service the
school--she jumps at the chance to fix it and get ahead in the program.
Only this Bio-mechanical isn't like the others. Where they are usually empty-minded and perfectly obedient, this one seems to have thoughts, feelings...and self-awareness.
Soon Lizzie realizes that it is Victor Frankenstein--a former student who died under mysterious circumstances. Victor, it seems, still has a spark of human intelligence inside him, along with memories of things he discovered before his untimely death...and a suspicion that he was murdered to keep that information from getting out.Suddenly Lizzie finds herself intertwined in dark secrets and sabotage that put her life, and the lives of Victor and their friends, in danger. But Lizzie's determined to succeed--even if that means fighting an enemy who threatens the entire British Empire.

Thoughts:
Ooooooh. This novel sounds really good! I mean it basically looks like a sci-fi type retelling of Frankenstein? Um, yes please. Just please let there be romance within the story and then the tale will be perfect. Very much hoping to read this when it comes out!
