Waiting on Wednesday...

So this is my first Waiting on Wednesday post and correct me if I'm wrong, but the point of this is to say what books you're looking forward to, right? 
 I'm really looking forward to and that is coming out this month is...

In The Afterlight by Alexandra Bracken. 
I seriously cannot wait until this book and I'm so excited that it's coming out in a matter of weeks. The Darkest Minds is one of my favorite book series that I've read and I can't wait to see how Alexandra finished the story. All I know is that Ruby, Liam, Zu, Chubs, Cole and Vida better live. If you haven't read The Darkest Minds, here's the synopsis for it. 
When Ruby woke up on her tenth birthday, something about her had changed. Something alarming enough to make her parents lock her in the garage and call the police. Something that gets her sent to Thurmond, a brutal government “rehabilitation camp.” She might have survived the mysterious disease that’s killed most of America’s children, but she and the others have emerged with something far worse: frightening abilities they cannot control.

Now sixteen, Ruby is one of the dangerous ones.

When the truth comes out, Ruby barely escapes Thurmond with her life. Now she’s on the run, desperate to find the one safe haven left for kids like her—East River. She joins a group of kids who escaped their own camp. Liam, their brave leader, is falling hard for Ruby. But no matter how much she aches for him, Ruby can’t risk getting close. Not after what happened to her parents.

When they arrive at East River, nothing is as it seems, least of all its mysterious leader. But there are other forces at work, people who will stop at nothing to use Ruby in their fight against the government. Ruby will be faced with a terrible choice, one that may mean giving up her only chance at a life worth living.


Sound interesting? Well, yeah, it is. I highly recommend it to you. The first few chapters I'll admit are a little hard to get into, but once you're in, there's no going back. I gave the Darkest Minds a 10/10 stars. That;s a really high review, for me at least, so seriously, you need to read it. 

Here's the synopsis for In the Afterlight, if you haven't read The Darkest Minds, though, I don't recommend reading it. 
Ruby can't look back. Fractured by an unbearable loss, she and the kids who survived the government's attack on Los Angeles travel north to regroup. With them is a prisoner: Clancy Gray, son of the president, and one of the few people Ruby has encountered with abilities like hers. Only Ruby has any power over him, and just one slip could lead to Clancy wreaking havoc on their minds. 

They are armed only with a volatile secret: proof of a government conspiracy to cover up the real cause of IAAN, the disease that has killed most of America's children and left Ruby and others like her with powers the government will kill to keep contained. But internal strife may destroy their only chance to free the "rehabilitation camps" housing thousands of other Psi kids.

Meanwhile, reunited with Liam, the boy she would-and did-sacrifice everything for to keep alive, Ruby must face the painful repercussions of having tampered with his memories of her. She turns to Cole, his older brother, to provide the intense training she knows she will need to take down Gray and the government. But Cole has demons of his own, and one fatal mistake may be the spark that sets the world on fire

Yeah so that's my most anticipated book of the month and I don't feel lik
