"Waiting on" Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases in which we are eagerly awaiting.
Beth's Pick:
I'm pretty sure almost everyone I know wants to read this! I've seen it on quite a few WoW's recently. The first time I saw the cover, I fell in love. Then I read the synopsis... Yep, even more in love!
Let The Sky Fall
Hardcover, 416 pages
Expected publication:
March 5th 2013
A broken past
and a divided future can’t stop the electric connection of two teens in
this “charged and romantic” (Becca Fitzpatrick), lush novel.
Seventeen-year-old
Vane Weston has no idea how he survived the category five tornado that
killed his parents. And he has no idea if the beautiful, dark-haired
girl who’s swept through his dreams every night since the storm is real.
But he hopes she is.
Seventeen-year-old Audra is a sylph, an air
elemental. She walks on the wind, can translate its alluring songs, and
can even coax it into a weapon with a simple string of commands. She’s
also a guardian—Vane’s guardian—and has sworn an oath to protect Vane at
all costs. Even if it means sacrificing her own life.
When a
hasty mistake reveals their location to the enemy who murdered both of
their families, Audra’s forced to help Vane remember who he is. He has a
power to claim—the secret language of the West Wind, which only he can
understand. But unlocking his heritage will also unlock the memory Audra
needs him to forget. And their greatest danger is not the warriors
coming to destroy them—but the forbidden romance that’s grown between
them.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Kait's Pick:
Another awesome sounding book about amnesia. This plot sounds like an amazing setup for a great twist[something I LOVE!].
Unremembered by Jessica Brody
Hardcover, 320 pages
Expected publication:
March 5th 2013
The only thing worse than forgetting her past... is remembering it.
When
Freedom Airlines flight 121 went down over the Pacific Ocean, no one
ever expected to find survivors. Which is why the sixteen-year-old girl
discovered floating among the wreckage—alive—is making headlines across
the globe.
Even more strange is that her body is miraculously
unharmed and she has no memories of boarding the plane. She has no
memories of her life before the crash. She has no memories period. No
one knows how she survived. No one knows why she wasn’t on the passenger
manifest. And no one can explain why her DNA and fingerprints can’t be
found in a single database in the world.
Crippled by a world she
doesn’t know, plagued by abilities she doesn’t understand, and haunted
by a looming threat she can’t remember, Seraphina struggles to piece
together her forgotten past and discover who she really is. But with
every clue only comes more questions. And she’s running out of time to
answer them.
Her only hope is a strangely alluring boy who claims
to know her from before the crash. Who claims they were in love. But
can she really trust him? And will he be able to protect her from the
people who have been making her forget?
From popular young adult
author, Jessica Brody comes a mesmerizing and suspenseful new series,
set in a world where science knows no boundaries, memories are
manipulated, and true love can never be forgotten.
I featured Let The Sky Fall a couple of months ago! Haha. I think it's a more popular pick because it's getting closer to the release date! Yay! Haha.
