Waiting on Wednesday #2


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking The Spine. It's a pre-publication "I can't wait to read this!" This week I'm waiting on:

Shatter Me (Shatter Me #1)
by Tahereh Mafi
Coming out on November 15, 2011

Goodreads Synopsis:
Juliette hasn't touched anyone in exactly 264 days.

The last time she did, it was an accident, but The Reestablishment locked her up for murder. No one knows why Juliette's touch is fatal. As long as she doesn't hurt anyone else, no one really cares. The world is too busy crumbling to pieces to pay attention to a 17-year-old girl. Diseases are destroying the population, food is hard to find, birds don't fly anymore, and the clouds are the wrong color.

The Reestablishment said their way was the only way to fix things, so they threw Juliette in a cell. Now so many people are dead that the survivors are whispering war-- and The Reestablishment has changed its mind. Maybe Juliette is more than a tortured soul stuffed into a poisonous body. Maybe she's exactly what they need right now.

Juliette has to make a choice: Be a weapon. Or be a warrior.

In this electrifying debut, Tahereh Mafi presents a world as riveting as The Hunger Games and a superhero story as thrilling as The X-Men. Full of pulse-pounding romance, intoxicating villainy, and high-stakes choices, Shatter Me is a fresh and original dystopian novel—with a paranormal twist—that will leave readers anxiously awaiting its sequel.


What are you waiting on?

  2. I'm sorry; I thought it was already out. It's been talked about for so long that I thought it was out. But it does look like a fantastic read: Xman and the Hunger Games, yes I am so reading it. Thanks for letting me know about my mistake. Happy reading!
