This week I’m eagerly waiting on:
Perfect Ruin by Lauren DeStefano
Expected publication: 3rd October 2013
Publisher: Harper Voyager
From Goodreads:
On the floating city of Internment, you can be anything you dream. Unless you approach the edge.
Morgan Stockhour knows getting too close to the edge of Internment, the floating city in the clouds where she lives, can lead to madness. Even though her older brother, Lex, was a Jumper, Morgan vows never to end up like him. If she ever wonders about the ground, and why it is forbidden, she takes solace in her best friend, Pen, and in Basil, the boy she’s engaged to marry.
Then a murder, the first in a generation, rocks the city. With whispers swirling and fear on the wind, Morgan can no longer stop herself from investigating, especially once she meets Judas. Betrothed to the victim, he is the boy being blamed for the murder, but Morgan is convinced of his innocence. Secrets lay at the heart of Internment, but nothing can prepare Morgan for what she will find – or whom she will lose.

I’m so curious about this book too! Looking forward to see what else is up her sleeve after The Chemical Garden trilogy. Nice pick!
Nemo
I’ve been looking forward to this for so long, I’m so glad the release date was bumped up!

This sounds like a really interesting book! I haven’t heard of it before, thanks for sharing:)

Thanks for stopping by!

This sounds really good 🙂
Nemo
Yeah, I’m really looking forward to it!
Bree
Oooh, this sounds really good! I know Lauren’s been Tweeting about The Internment Chronicles, but I’d kinda forgotten to check out the first book. Definitely adding to my TBR!

I don’t go on Twitter much but she’s been pimping it a lot on Facebook, too. I’ve been looking forward to it a lot because I love her writing style. I would pay to read that woman’s grocery list.
El @ Sobookalicious
I’ve seen this one a lot lately and it does sound good. I hope you’ll enjoy it! Thanks for sharing this one!

Nemo
Thank you very much! Yeah, it is getting a bit of buzz. I hope it’s worth it!
Kara @ Great Imaginations
I am waiting on this too, but I loved the other cover so much more!
Nemo
Really? I love THIS cover, which is why I chose it for this week’s WOW. The other cover was disappointing to me.

I definitely need it to get a move on on the chemical garden trilogy because I know it’s one of your favorites (and I kind of want to read it before this new series comes out)… Perhaps I’ll pick it up after I finish poison study. 🙂
Nemo
Ooooh, yes! The writing in the Chemical Gardens is just brilliant. The worldbuilding seems a bit dodgy at first and some of the society rules don’t make sense, but I think you’ll enjoy it.

Nemo
I love the cover as well!
Emma @ Spun With Words
I’ve been anticipating this book for a while, but I’ve never seen this cover before! I loved the Chemical Garden Trilogy, though, so it should be an awesome novel!
Nemo
This is the UK cover, I think! Not sure. I am going to get this cover though, because I like it better than the other one.
