Waiting on Wednesday (34)

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:

Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver

Add it: Goodreads
Publisher: HarperCollins
Release Date: February 28, 2012
I’m pushing aside the memory of my nightmare,
pushing aside thoughts of Alex,
pushing aside thoughts of Hana and my old school,
push,
push,
push,
like Raven taught me to do.
The old life is dead.
But the old Lena is dead too.
I buried her.
I left her beyond a fence,
behind a wall of smoke and flame. 
Lauren Oliver delivers an electrifying follow-up to her acclaimed New York Times bestseller, Delirium. This riveting, brilliant novel crackles with the fire of fierce defiance, forbidden romance, and the sparks of a revolution about to ignite.
It's not exactly a secret that I adore Lauren Oliver's work and hopefully this one will continue the trend! Delirium was amazing and beautiful, even if it did stomp on my heart and break into a million little pieces at the end.

LIKE REALLY. WHAT THE FKSJDH? WAY TO END A BOOK, OLIVER.

Ahem. So I'm like, kind of excited for it.

I actually named this one as my top most anticipated novel of 2012 and said that I was terrified for it at the same time. This is still true.

Anyone that's read this already? I'm kind of jealous. How was it? :)

    I've heard there was a cliffhanger at the end of Delirium. I haven't read it yet, but plan to soon. That way I don't have to wait long for Pandemonium. Hope you don't have to wait too much longer and you can get your hands on a copy soon.
