Summary

"A coming-of-age novel about two human-like teen robots navigating high school, basketball, and potentially life-threatening consequences if their true origins are discovered by the inhabitants of their intolerant 1980s Michigan hometown"--
Fraternal twin brothers Darryl and Kanga are just like any other teenagers trying to make it through high school: dealing with peer pressure, awkwardness, and family drama. But there's one closely guarded secret that sets them apart: they are robots. Their parents were declared obsolete years ago, and taken away. When Kanga becomes the star of the basketball team, Darryl has to work to keep them both out of the spotlight. If anyone in their small Michigan town were to find out what they truly are, they'd likely be disassembled by an angry mob in the middle of their school gym.
