This Mortal Coil by Emily Suvada
5.0

By chance, This Mortal Coil came into my possession. I didn't have any intentions of purchasing this book but thanks to my libraries weekly Saturday book sales, I bought This Mortal Coil and...I really liked it.

I started this book yesterday, I think. As I was talking to my great-grandmother today I predicted that I would finish This Mortal Coil by the end of the day. She just gave me a look because she knew that was exactly what was going to happen. Once I sat down and was able to lose myself in the novel, I was flying through the pages. Catarina is exactly the type of heroine I strive to find in my books. Cole was a nice touch too, to be honest. My middle school lovesick heart would have fallen in love with him faster than I did today. Although I didn't totally understand the DNA/sequencing talk in This Mortal Coil, I definitely enjoyed reading about it (actually considering studying it too). Plus the plot twists completely caught me unaware. Talk about A+ work.
