Currently Reading:
The Beautiful and the Cursed by Page Morgan and Reboot by Amy Tintera (this book hooked me instantly!)
Finished Reading: None yet! >.<
Read Next:
Transparent by Natalie Whipple
Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, originally started by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that highlights upcoming book releases everyone is waiting on.
(Splintered #2)
by A.G Howard
Expected publication: January 2014 by Amulet
Blurb (A&C Kids UK FB page):
"I focus on the chaos around us. This is the worst I've ever seen Wonderland look. Deep purple clouds scud across the sky like fat gauzy spiders, leaving dark trails as if spinning webs in the air. The mud beneath my shoes groans and sputters. Brown bubbles pop and rise into the air. If I didn't know better, I'd swear something was breathing under there.
Even the wind has found a voice, loud and melancholy, whistling though the flower-zombie forest that once stood as proud as elms. The flowers used to greet me with snarky attitudes and snooty conversation. Now, each and every one cowers, bent at the stems, their wilted arms hiding petals that are studded with hundreds of shuttered eyes.
The multi-eyed neatherlings have lost their fight...their soul.
Morpheus slides his hands into a pair of slick, red gloves. "If you think this is tragic, you should see what's happening in the heart of Wonderland."
Seeing this book was a complete surprise. I thought Splintered was a standalone but who cares? I loved Splintered and I'll be waiting for this one no matter what. I just hope this would be as awesome as the first one. It kind of scared me a bit, to be honest. But eeeep! Can't wait! :D

I've heard about The Beautiful and The Cursed. Transparent looks incredibly interesting. I'm very excited about Unhinged too.
ReplyDeleteI just found out today, though another WoW post, that Splintered wasn't a stand-alone. I'm glad I'm not alone! I did like Splintered and this sounds great, so yay! Great pick!

I need to check out the Splintered series! Still haven't read it yet but it's on my tbr. I'm reading Tiffany King's No Attachments, the last book I read was Twisted Perfection by Abbi Glines, and the next book I'm reading is This Girl by Colleen Hoover!
ReplyDeleteI have The Beautiful and the Cursed also! Different cover though. And I can't wait to read Unhinged! YAY for A.G. Howard books! :D
ReplyDeleteCheck out my WoW post!
Holy cow. Unhinged has a fabulous cover. I'm hooked and I know nothing about it.

I absolutely love it! The summary and the cover reminds me of the game "Alice: Madness Returns". Definitely waiting on this.
ReplyDeleteAhhh! I haven't read Splintered yet (but I really want to). I might wait a little bit longer now, just because I'm 95% sure I'll love Splintered, and that way I won't have to wait as long for the sequel. And ohmigoodnessthatcover! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI love love love the cover of this book!! I agree with Sydney above... it reminds me of Alice: Madness Returns too!
