Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Title: Crossed
Author: Ally Condie
Release Date: November 1, 2011
From Goodreads:
The hotly awaited second book in the dystopian Matched trilogy
In search of a future that may not exist and faced with the decision of who to share it with, Cassia journeys to the Outer Provinces in pursuit of Ky - taken by the Society to his certain death - only to find that he has escaped, leaving a series of clues in his wake.
Cassia's quest leads her to question much of what she holds dear, even as she finds glimmers of a different life across the border. But as Cassia nears resolve and certainty about her future with Ky, an invitation for rebellion, an unexpected betrayal, and a surprise visit from Xander - who may hold the key to the uprising and, still, to Cassia's heart - change the game once again. Nothing is as expected on the edge of Society, where crosses and double crosses make the path more twisted than ever.

November can't get here fast enough! I read Matched way back in January and have been dying to read the sequel ever since. I just *HAVE* to know what happens between Cassia and Ky. Really, it is stressing me out having to wait. All of my attempts at getting my hands on an ARC so far have been failures. I will get my hands on this book!!! Of course, once I read this one I will be even more stressed out having to wait for book #3. Am I the only one who has this problem?
What are you waiting on?
I am impatiently waiting for this book too!! I'm a new follower of your blog. Cute cute. I'm definitely a book cover judger. =)

I haven't had a chance to read Matched yet. I have a copy at home. I'm almost scared to because of all the mixed opinions on it.

Btw- I'm giving away an ARC of Legend and it ends tonight if you haven't entered yet. ;)
I didn't LOVE Matched. It was just alright for me, but I think I'll pick this one up when it comes out. It seems like you're Team Ky! Haha, I'm Team Xander. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL yes, I am Team Ky :) I have a bad feeling about Xander, I think he may turn out to be not-so-nice. I can't wait to find out either way!
ReplyDeleteAHH YES!! So, so, so excited for Crossed. I loved Matched and gah... the ending? KY! I'm desperate to see what will happen next. Cannot. Flipping. Wait for this.
ReplyDeleteI've seen this book a lot lately. I think Dystopian is getting popular now. Hope you like the book!
