Waiting on Wednesday #1

“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.

I decided to start doing this. I really love when I see blogs doing this memes, so now it’s my turn.

So what I am waiting for… is REQUIEM by Lauren Oliver! This is the last book in the Delirium trilogy and let’s say that the last two books ended up in a very dramatic way, I seriously can’t wait for my book to arrive, so I can read it! 14 days until it’s release (funny, 14 is my lucky number)!!

Title: Requiem
Author: Lauren Oliver
Series: Delirium #3
Genre: YA
Expected Publication: March 5th, 2013

Summary (Goodreads):
They have tried to squeeze us out, to stamp us into the past.

But we are still here.

And there are more of us every day.

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.

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 fiancée of the young mayor.

Maybe we are driven crazy by our feelings.

Maybe love is a disease, and we would be better off without it.

But we have chosen a different road.

And in the end, that is the point of escaping the cure: We are free to choose.

We are even free to choose the wrong thing.

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.
