My WoW this week is:

The Raven Boys
Author: Maggie Steifvater
Series: Raven Cycle #1
Publisher: Scholastic Press
Publication Date: September 18, 2012
Reading Level: Young Adult
Format: Hardcover/E-book


Synopsis:


“There are only two reasons a non-seer would see a spirit on St. Mark’s Eve,” Neeve said. “Either you’re his true love . . . or you killed him.”

It is freezing in the churchyard, even before the dead arrive.

Every year, Blue Sargent stands next to her clairvoyant mother as the soon-to-be dead walk past. Blue herself never sees them—not until this year, when a boy emerges from the dark and speaks directly to her.

His name is Gansey, and Blue soon discovers that he is a rich student at Aglionby, the local private school. Blue has a policy of staying away from Aglionby boys. Known as Raven Boys, they can only mean trouble.

But Blue is drawn to Gansey, in a way she can’t entirely explain. He has it all—family money, good looks, devoted friends—but he’s looking for much more than that. He is on a quest that has encompassed three other Raven Boys: Adam, the scholarship student who resents all the privilege around him; Ronan, the fierce soul who ranges from anger to despair; and Noah, the taciturn watcher of the four, who notices many things but says very little.

For as long as she can remember, Blue has been warned that she will cause her true love to die. She never thought this would be a problem. But now, as her life becomes caught up in the strange and sinister world of the Raven Boys, she’s not so sure anymore.

From Maggie Stiefvater, the bestselling and acclaimed author of theShiver trilogy and The Scorpio Races, comes a spellbinding new series where the inevitability of death and the nature of love lead us to a place we’ve never been before.



I love Maggie's work!  I can't wait to read another book by her!

Pre-order now!




Until Next Time

My WoW this week is:

What's Left of Me
Author: Kat Zhang
Series: Hybrid Chronicles, #1
Publisher: HarperTeen
Publication Date: September 18, 2012
Reading Level: Young Adult
Format: Hardcover/E-book


Synopsis:


Eva and Addie started out the same way as everyone else—two souls woven together in one body, taking turns controlling their movements as they learned how to walk, how to sing, how to dance. But as they grew, so did the worried whispers. Why aren’t they settling? Why isn’t one of them fading? The doctors ran tests, the neighbors shied away, and their parents begged for more time. Finally Addie was pronounced healthy and Eva was declared gone. Except, she wasn’t…

For the past three years, Eva has clung to the remnants of her life. Only Addie knows she’s still there, trapped inside their body. Then one day, they discover there may be a way for Eva to move again. The risks are unimaginable–hybrids are considered a threat to society, so if they are caught, Addie and Eva will be locked away with the others. And yet…for a chance to smile, to twirl, to speak, Eva will do anything



I've been hearing a lot about this book and I want to read it so bad!  I love a good, alternate universe, what if, science-fiction read.  I'm hoping this will be all it's cracked up to be!

Pre-order now!

This week's WoW is:

Beautiful Redemption
Author: Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl
Series: Caster Chronicles #4
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Publication Date: October 23, 2012
Reading Level: Young Adult
Format: Hardcover/E-book

Synopsis: (Warning: Synopsis for this book contains spoilers for the rest of the series!)

Is death the end . . . or only the beginning?

Ethan Wate has spent most of his life longing to escape the stiflingly small Southern town of Gatlin. He never thought he would meet the girl of his dreams, Lena Duchannes, who unveiled a secretive, powerful, and cursed side of Gatlin, hidden in plain sight. And he never could have expected that he would be forced to leave behind everyone and everything he cares about. So when Ethan awakes after the chilling events of the Eighteenth Moon, he has only one goal: to find a way to return to Lena and the ones he loves.

Back in Gatlin, Lena is making her own bargains for Ethan's return, vowing to do whatever it takes -- even if that means trusting old enemies or risking the lives of the family and friends Ethan left to protect.
Worlds apart, Ethan and Lena must once again work together to rewrite their fate, in this stunning finale to the Beautiful Creatures series.



I got hooked on this series back at the end of last year.  I had bought Beautiful Creatures back at a going-out-of-business sale at my local Borders, and had it sitting around for quite some time before I picked it up.  A friend of mine had read it so I decided to go ahead and pick it up.  I was so glad I did!  It is a delicious read filled with Southern charm, paranormal activity and lots of romance and adventure!  You won't regret reading this series!  And yes, this is the last book in this series so you won't have to wait and wait for the next book if you read it now!

Until Next Time

This week's WoW is:

Requim
Author: Lauren Oliver
Series: Delirium #3
Publisher: HarperTeen
Publication Date: March 5, 2013
Reading Level: Young Adult
Format: Hardcover/E-book

Synopsis: (Warning: Synopsis for this book contains spoilers for both Delirium and Pandemonium)

Now an active member of the resistance, Lena has been transformed. The nascent rebellion that was under way in Pandemonium has ignited into an all-out revolution in Requiem, and Lena is at the center of the fight. Of Pandemonium, ALA Booklist noted that “like all successful second volumes, this expands the world and ups the stakes, setting us up for the big finale.”

After rescuing Julian from a death sentence, Lena and her friends fled to the Wilds. But the Wilds are no longer a safe haven—pockets of rebellion have opened throughout the country, and the government cannot deny the existence of Invalids. Regulators now infiltrate the borderlands to stamp out the rebels, and as Lena navigates the increasingly dangerous terrain, her best friend, Hana, lives a safe, loveless life in Portland as the fiancĂ©e of the young mayor. Requiem is told from both Lena’s and Hana’s points of view. The two girls live side by side in a world that divides them until, at last, their stories converge.



I cannot wait for this book to come out!  Lauren Oliver is pure genious.  I love this series!  Especially with the cliff hanger ending of Pandemonium.  I can't wait to see where Ms. Oliver goes with this story line!  I'm kind of nervous to see what's going to happen!

Until Next Time

Waiting on Wednesday (1)



Jill @ Breaking the Spine hosts the weekly "Waiting on Wednesday", where you share what book you are patiently (or not patiently) waiting to come out!

My book for the week is:

Iron's Prophecy
Author: Julie Kagawa
Series: Iron Fey (book 4.5)
Publisher: HarelquinTEEN
Publication Date: September 1, 2012
Reading Level: Young Adult
Format: E-Novella

From Goodreads: (do NOT read the synopsis if you have not read the series. it WILL ruin the series for you)

"Meghan Chase is finally getting used to being the Iron Queen, ruler of the Iron Fey. Her life may be strange, but with former Winter prince Ash by her side at last, she wouldn’t have it any other way.

But when they travel to the Summer and Winter courts’ gathering for Elysium, the oracle from Meghan’s past returns with a dire prophecy: “What you carry will either unite the courts, or it will destroy them.” Now Meghan faces a devastating choice that may determine the future of all fey—and her and Ash’s unborn child…"






I am SO excited for this book!  I just recently finished up the Iron Fey series and I'm so excited to read this and have Meghan, Ash and Puck's story continue, for at least one more small Novella.  I know they're only characters in a book but I miss them like they're real friends.  That's when you know you have a good story, when you become so attached to the characters that they feel more like friends then characters you are reading about.

I really hope Grimalkin appears or I'm going to be so upset!

Until Next Time!

Sorry guys! I know I haven't blogged in like a week. I feel terrible. But I was in Hershey all weekend and I've been busy working and stuff since I got home! Today is the first day I've been able to get to a computer (and its not even mine!)
So my WoW for the week is another no information one again! It is the 4th book in the Wings Series by Aprilynne Pike. Again, no title, no cover, no release date, no synopsis. I'm terrible but I cannot wait for this book to come out! I'm so excited! Especially since Illusions ended with such a big cliff hanger!
Until Next Time!

So my WoW for the week is.....

Okay.  So. I don't have a cover, or a title or a release date or even a plot!   But I cannot wait for Pretty Little Liars #10.  I am so happy Sara Shepard decided to write more.  It makes me really happy.  And I just finished Twisted this morning.  It was so good!  I'll be reviewing it later today!
Well that's my WoW!

The awesomeness of Breaking the Spine came up with this idea.
So my WoW for the week is:

If I Die (Rachel Vincent)
Title: If I Die
Author: Rachel Vincent
Series: Soul Screamers (#5)
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
Date of Publication: September 27, 2011
Pre-order: Amazon

Synopsis: (provided by Goodreads)
No one wants to be this teacher’s pet . . .
Everyone else is talking about Eastlake High’s gorgeous new math teacher, Mr. Beck, but Kaylee Cavanaugh has bigger things on her mind. Kaylee’s a banshee—her scream is a portent of death.
But the next scream might hit too close to home. Kaylee’s borrowed lifeline has almost run out.
Yeah—it’s a shock to her, too. So to distract herself from her own problems, Kaylee is determined to defend her school against the latest supernatural threat. That hot new teacher is really an incubus, who feeds from the desire of unsuspecting students. The only girls immune to his lure are Kaylee and Sabine, her boyfriend’s delinquent ex-girlfriend. Now the unlikely allies have to get rid of Mr. Beck…before he discovers they aren’t quite human either.
But Kaylee’s running out of time, and those who love her will do anything to save her life.
Anything. 



I love this series and I am so anxious for this next book to come out to find out what is going to happen with Kaylee and Nash! I'm a major sucker for romance and I hope these two spark up again!
Until next time!
