Brain Fruit by Stephen Oram

Thank you @literallypr for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Brain Fruit is a young adult book that is 52 pages long. I feel Brain Fruit is a book you can come back to because there is so much in this small novel, you can easily miss something, and I felt each time I read it back I learned something new about the plot. The pace of the story is fast because it’s a short read, and I did like that a lot, and it's an entirely unique read from my usual read, but it's an interesting and entertaining read. I am glad I got to read it. I feel lots of age groups will enjoy this book. The story is written elegantly and is a fascinating book. 4 stars. Blurb Nurtured by the neural networks of a bee, a brain fruit is born. To become a symbiotic trioid and continue the evolutionary crawl upwards they need to combine with an insect bug. And they need to deal with those that would destroy the givers of life. Stephen Oram’s zoefuturist story explores the fragility of emerging relationships - how we welcome, how we trust and how we keep becoming. A mind-bending, bio-digital fable that pulses with poetic strangeness. Oram’s Brain Fruit is daring, disorienting, and deeply human. Presented in a limited-edition only, 500 numbered copies, and a design-forward format, this is not just a story—it’s an experience. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………Bio Stephen Oram is a leading voice in zoefuturist and social science fiction, exploring the collision of messy humans and imperfect technologies. His work spans novels, award-winning short story, and foresight fiction collaborations with scientists and institutions like King’s College London. A former UK Government Head of Policy, he’s described by The Financial Times as a writer who “should set the rest of us thinking.” Stephen is based in the heart of central London and attributes much of the urban grittiness and the optimism about humanity in his writing to the noise, the bustle, and the diverse community of where he lives
