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:

Waiting on Wednesday (87)Pawn by Aimee Carter
Series: The Blackcoat Rebellion #1
Published by Harlequin Teen on November 26th 2013
Genres: Dystopia, YA
Goodreads

For Kitty Doe, it seems like an easy choice. She can either spend her life as a III in misery, looked down upon by the higher ranks and forced to leave the people she loves, or she can become a VII and join the most powerful family in the country.

If she says yes, Kitty will be Masked—surgically transformed into Lila Hart, the Prime Minister's niece, who died under mysterious circumstances. As a member of the Hart family, she will be famous. She will be adored. And for the first time, she will matter.

There's only one catch. She must also stop the rebellion that Lila secretly fostered, the same one that got her killed …and one Kitty believes in. Faced with threats, conspiracies and a life that's not her own, she must decide which path to choose—and learn how to become more than a pawn in a twisted game she's only beginning to understand.


I know, I know, it’s a dystopian, but it’s so hard to break the habit and it sounds so good! >.<


What are you waiting on?

My pick this week:

You know what I haven’t read lately and been really in the mood for? A good shifter/paranormal book! I remember enjoying a bunch of werewolf books for a while over a year ago and I miss it! There hasn’t been any that caught my eye but this one sounds like it could be awesome, especially seeing this is the author of a series that’s been recommended to me countless times, Immortal Beloved. So I’ll be sinking my teeth into this one for sure! (PS – feel free to rec me some good were/shifter books in the comments ;))
