Waiting on Wednesday (29): Unravel Me

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. Visit Breaking The Spine to see more entries!


This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
Unravel Me (Shatter Me #2) by Tahereh Mafi
Release Date:  February 5th 2013 by HarperCollins
Format: Hardcover


 Goodreads Summary:
tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
it's almost
time for war.

Juliette has escaped to Omega Point. It is a place for people like her—people with gifts—and it is also the headquarters of the rebel resistance.

She's finally free from The Reestablishment, free from their plan to use her as a weapon, and free to love Adam. But Juliette will never be free from her lethal touch.

Or from Warner, who wants Juliette more than she ever thought possible.

In this exhilarating sequel to Shatter Me, Juliette has to make life-changing decisions between what she wants and what she thinks is right. Decisions that might involve choosing between her heart—and Adam's life



Reasons I want to read & own this book: 
1. The genre. I really am falling in love with young adult dystopian novels. Shatter Me (book 1) in this series was a mix of a post apocalyptic world with a dash of xmenish vibes because some characters have unique powers and are willing to risk it all to get away from the oppressive system/government in the story.

2. The villain. Warner. I just loved how complex he was. Beautiful on the outside, corrupt and tyrannical on the inside yet somewhat vulnerable with a hidden longing. When you hate and love a character, all at the same time, and feel confused as a reader on how to feel, you know you have a winning character in terms of depth.



What do you guys think? :)

Cover Reveal Thursday

Hey guys.
So, lately there have been a lot of cover reveals for either new books, upcoming releases or re-releases and I wanted to share with you, my readers, my favorite two covers that I have seen over the last few weeks.

Cover #1
Unravel Me (Shatter Me #2) by Tahereh Mafi
Release Date:  February 5th 2013 by HarperCollins
Format: Hardcover
 
 
Isn't this cover just stunning? Cover art at it's best, in my opinion. So Unravel Me is the second installment in the Shatter Me series. Shatter Me was an incredibly amazing and poetic dystopian novel and I can't wait to read book 2 in this series.





Cover #2
The Indigo Spell (Bloodlines #3) by Richelle Mead
Release Date:  February 12th 2013 by Razorbill
Format: Hardcover
 
 
 
I cannot wait for this book. I am a huge fan of the Bloodlines series and I'm constantly amazed at how talented Richelle Mead is when it comes creating book series that are so unique even though they may take place in the same world as her previous books. I say this since the Bloodline series is a spin off series of Vampire Academy. I love the main characters in Bloodlines (Sydney and Adrian) and can't wait to see how they conquer more challenges in The Indigo Spell. Speaking of, I just love the cover for The Indigo Spell. The color, with the flowers around the title, everything looks great, though I am intrigued by the new guy on the cover (one on the left) since Adrian is on the right. I wonder who he may be? February can't come soon enough! 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
What do you guys think? Are there any book covers that you are gushing about? And if so, which ones are they? :)

Thanks for reading lovelies <3
