What I'm waiting for:  Insurgent by Veronica Roth

Release Date: May 28th 2012

 

 

One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.

Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable—and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.

 

 

 

Divergent was amazing and I cannot wait for this next book in the series! And how awesome does that cover look? I think I like it more than Divergent's cover!

What I'm waiting for: Catching Jordan By Miranda Kenneally

Release Date: December 1st 2011

What girl doesn't want to be surrounded by gorgeous jocks day in and day out? Jordan Woods isn't just surrounded by hot guys, though-she leads them as the captain and quarterback of her high school football team. They all see her as one of the guys, and that's just fine. As long as she gets her athletic scholarship to a powerhouse university. But now there's a new guy in town who threatens her starting position... suddenly she's hoping he'll see her as more than just a teammate.

I love the sound of a girl leading a football team. I can't wait to read this book! It sounds really cool!

What I'm waiting for: Crossed by Ally Condie

Release date: November 1st 2011

 

In search of a future that may not exist and faced with the decision of who to share it with, Cassia journeys to the Outer Provinces in pursuit of Ky - taken by the Society to his certain death - only to find that he has escaped, leaving a series of clues in his wake.

Cassia's quest leads her to question much of what she holds dear, even as she finds glimmers of a different life across the border. But as Cassia nears resolve and certainty about her future with Ky, an invitation for rebellion, an unexpected betrayal, and a surprise visit from Xander - who may hold the key to the uprising and, still, to Cassia's heart - change the game once again. Nothing is as expected on the edge of Society, where crosses and double crosses make the path more twisted than ever.

 

 

I'm interested in finding out what Cassia will face in Crossed. I'd also like to know what the rebellion would be like and what it would be about.

A modern retelling of the German fairytale "Tristan and Isolde", Tris and Izzie is about a young witch named Izzie who is dating Mark King, the captain of the basketball team and thinks her life is going swimmingly well.

I really liked the movie Tristan and Isolde, so I'm looking forward to reading a modern version of that story. And also, how pretty is that cover?!

What I'm waiting for :   Awake at Dawn by C.C. Hunter
Release date - October 11th 2011



Now that she’s settled in at Shadow Falls Camp, Kylie Galen’s determined to discover the extent of her supernatural abilities.  But with a ghost insisting someone Kylie loves is about die, a rogue vampire on a murdering rampage, and her sixth sense telling her someone is watching her, Kylie’s quest for answers is quickly put on hold. 
 
To make matters worse, just when she’s about to give her heart to Derek, a half-fairy, he starts pulling away.  When Lucas, a werewolf with whom Kylie shares a secret past, returns, Kylie’s feels more conflicted than ever. Her weekend with her mom should have been the just the break Kylie needs, but it turns out to be her breaking point.  Someone from the dark side of the supernatural world has plans for Kylie—and it'll take all her resources to get back to Shadow Falls alive... - from Goodreads

Since I'm almost done with Born at Midnight, and I really like it so far, I can't wait to continue with Kylie's story and read more about this world in which vampires, werewolves, witches and many other supernaturals exist. This looks like a series that I'm really going to enjoy.

What I'm waiting for :

Forever ( The Wolves of Mercy Falls #3)

The thrilling conclusion to #1 bestselling Shiver trilogy from Maggie Stievater 

In Maggie Stiefvater's SHIVER, Grace and Sam found each other. In LINGER, they fought to be together. Now, in FOREVER, the stakes are even higher than before. Wolves are being hunted. Lives are being threatened. And love is harder and harder to hold on to as death comes closing in.

Since I finished Linger a year ago, I've been waiting eagerly for this book to come out. I can't wait to finally find out how this series will end. I'll be sad, like I am when any series that I love ends, but I'm also going to be extremely happy to finally know how it all ends. Just two more weeks!
