Waiting on Wednesday (23)

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine. The purpose of the event is to spotlight the upcoming releases that readers are most looking forward to.

This week, I've chosen...

Crossed by Ally Condie

Add it: Goodreads
Publisher: Dutton
Release Date: November 1, 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.

If you were here back in... June? May?, I LOVE YOU you might remember I posted a very positive review of Matched. The writing was beautiful, the story was engrossing, and I sort of liked that Ky boy.

If you haven't read Matched yet, I really recommend it!

What are you waiting on this Wednesday?

  1. I was so insanely jealous of all the people who came home from BEA with this one. Grrr. I want it! I'm hoping they have the third one in the series when I go to BEA next year!

    And I wasn't here in June, but I'm here now and following you! Feel free to check out my WoW:
