Waiting on Wednesday is a blog post hosted by Breaking The Spine in which bloggers post about up-coming releases they’re dying to read.
My Pick:
The Fox Inheritance (Publication Date: August 30, 2011)
I loved The Adoration of Jenna Fox. It is one of my favorite YA books, and my students devour this book like none other…I had students fighting over this title. And I hate to admit this…but…until recently I had no idea Pearson was turning her story into a series. Word on the street is that Inheritance can stand on it’s own. And luckily, so can Adoration. Stand-alone appeal aside, I loved the first so much I’ll definitely be picking up the second.
Summary from GoodReads
Once there were three. Three friends who loved each other—Jenna, Locke, and Kara. And after a terrible accident destroyed their bodies, their three minds were kept alive, spinning in a digital netherworld. Even in that disembodied nightmare, they were still together. At least at first. When Jenna disappeared, Locke and Kara had to go on without her. Decades passed, and then centuries.
Two-hundred-and-sixty years later, they have been released at last. Given new, perfect bodies, Locke and Kara awaken to a world they know nothing about, where everyone they once knew and loved is long dead.
Everyone except Jenna Fox.
What’s your “Waiting” pick this week?
