Waiting on Wednesday (24)

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine and spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. 

My pick this week:
Silver
Talia Vance
Release date: September 8th, 2012
by Flux

Beauty is pointless when no one's looking.

Brianna Paxton has been invisible to guys since the eighth grade. She’s pretty enough, it’s just that no one bothers to look. There’s almost nothing that can’t be explained with science, and Brianna has a theory: she’s missing the pheromone that attracts people to one another. Brianna’s theory is shot to hell in one frozen, silver moment, when time stops and Blake Williams not only sees her, he recognizes something inside her that she’s been hiding from even herself.

Before Brianna fully understands who and what she is, she accidentally binds her soul to Blake. Forced to find a way to reconcile forbidden love and her bloody heritage, Brianna discovers that there's nothing pointless about her, and Blake may be in the most danger of all.

I really dig the fun, sarcastic vibe of this blurb. If there's one thing I love in books it's humor, and this one sounds like it's going to be spunky and intriguing - yes please! I only noticed this book a couple of days ago from one of my friends on Goodreads, since then I simply HAVE to have it!

What are you waiting on this week?

  1. ooooooh! Finally a character I can connect with. I know Bri's pain, I'm missing that pheromone to attract people too. :(

    LOL

    Awesome cover! Thanks for letting me know about this one.

  2. This is new to me too! Sounds really good. I'm wondering why no one has noticed her and now why Blake did. Also what might she be?
