This Mortal Coil by Emily Suvada
2.0

This was messy and cookie cutter, with a decent beginning and decent (but predictable) ending.

In this story, you’ll find:

1. A love triangle with the boy from her past and the mysterious new protector
2. A dystopian world where a virus screwed up humanity and people are living in a bunker
3. A savior girl with a past and some messed up parentage
4. A false ending so there will be more books

The new and exciting part is the gene therapy and tech additions, though they were messy and hard to follow. As a person interested in genetics, I wanted to love this but it just wasn’t there. Had this been 2010, I’d probably be all over this story. But it’s played out and unoriginal.
