Vitro by Jessica Khoury
On a remote island in the Pacific, Corpus scientists have taken test tube embryos and given them life. These beings--the Vitros--have knowledge and abilities most humans can only dream of. But they also have one enormous flaw.Comes out January 14th, 2014 from Razorbill
Sophie Crue is determined to visit Skin Island and find her mother, a scientist who left Sophie behind years ago. She enlists hunky charter pilot Jim Julien to take her there. But once on the island, Sophie and Jim encounter more than they bargained for, including a charming, brilliant Vitro named Nicholas and an innocent, newly awoken one named Lux.
In a race for their lives, Sophie and Jim are about to discover what happens when science stretches too far beyond its reach.
Nice pick. I wish I could get the first book from my library. :(

I have Origin sitting on my TBR shelf. Is this a sequel as the person in the last comment said? But this one sounds really good too!

It's a separate book and both are stand alone:) Origin was a pretty good book too though!

This sounds really interesting-I haven't read anything from this author but I might want to give this release a try.
