Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking The Spine, where you can spotlight an upcoming release that you're eagerly anticipating!
This week I'm waiting on:
Fire & Flood by Victoria Scott
Releases on: February 25th, 2014 Add it on Goodreads!
FROM GOODREADS: A modern day thrill ride, where a teen girl and her animal companion must participate in a breathtaking race to save her brother's life- and her own.
Tella Holloway is losing it. Her brother is sick, and when a dozen doctors can't determine what's wrong, her parents decide to move to Montana for the fresh air. She's lost her friends, her parents are driving her crazy, her brother is dying- and she's helpless to change anything.
Until she receives mysterious instructions on how to become a Contender in the Brimstone Bleed. It's an epic race across jungle, desert, ocean, and mountain that could win her the prize she desperately desires: the Cure for her brother's illness. But all the Contenders are after the Cure for people they love, and there's no guarantee that Tella (or any of them) will survive the race.
The jungle is terrifying, the clock is ticking, and Tella knows she can't trust the allies she makes. And one big question emerges: Why have so many fallen sick in the first place?

Why I'm waiting:
Um, number 1 reason I am waiting for this? AN ANIMAL COMPANION! This makes me so excited! Plus some kind of epic race across a jungle!! Count me in!! I have been hearing lots of buzz on this new book lately, and it sounds wicked!! Thankfully it comes out in the next few weeks, because I need this book like yesterday.

I have heard the most amazing things about this author and her books and this one sounds really interesting. It sounds like everything I could wish for - dystopian, romance and thriller. Great pick :)
ReplyDeleteI KNOW!! AH I CANT WAIT!!
DeletePerfect choice!! I am desperate to read this!! I have my copy pre-ordered and will be locking myself away to read it once it arrives!!
ReplyDeleteHere is my WoW
New follower. Have a great week!! :)
I will be doing the exact same thing! :) Thanks for following! :)
DeleteANIMAL COMPANION!? I need! I need! Animal companions are my favorite in books. Sometimes I even cry more for them if they die than I would a main character. I'm a horrible person, I know.
ReplyDeleteI've seen this book popping up everywhere, but I haven't read the synopsis until now. I love game/race sort of novels, so I'm definitely getting this once it releases.
New follower! :)
Here's my WoW.

Thanks Missie! I'll check out your review after I read it, bc I don't normally read reviews of books I haven't picked up yet!!
DeleteI've heard so many mixed reviews for this one that I'm really anxious to get my hands on it, too. :)
ReplyDeleteBlah, I hope it's one that we both fall in love with like I'm hoping!! :)
