My WoW pick this week
is:
Requiem by Lauren Oliver
Expected Publication: March 5, 2013
Summary from Goodreads:
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 don't even know what to say besides... THIS SOUNDS FANTASTIC XD I'm pretty embarrassed to say I still haven't read Pandemonium- mostly because of the whole love-interest-other-than-Alex thing that I don't know if I can stand- but I'm thinking I definitely should before Requiem comes out!
ReplyDeleteAwesome choice this week, Christy <3

I still need to read Delirium! >.< It's just collecting dust on my shelf while I read all these dang review copies. Hopefully I'll be able to read it soon and finally be in the loop.

I was a disappointed a little by Pandemonium but it ended on such a cliffhanger that I MUST KNOW!
