Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine, where you can spotlight an upcoming release you're eagerly anticipating!
This week I'm waiting on:
The Cage by Megan Shepherd
Releases on: May 26h, 2015 ADD IT TO GOODREADS!
From Goodreads: When Cora Mason wakes in a desert, she doesn't know where she is or who put her there. As she explores, she finds an impossible mix of environments-- tundra next to desert, farm next to jungle-- and a strangely empty town cobbled together from different cultures and time periods, all watched over by eerie black shadows. And she isn't alone.
Four other teenagers have also been taken: a beautiful model, a tattooed smuggler, a secretive genius, and an army brat who seems to know too much about Cora's past. None of them have a clue as to what happened, and all of them have secrets. As the unlikely group struggles for leadership, they slowly start to trust each other. But when their mysterious jailer appears-- a handsome young guard named Cassian-- they realize their captors aren't from Earth. And they have taken the five teenagers to an otherworldly zoo-- where the exhibits are humans.

But when their mysterious jailer appears-- a handsome young guard named Cassian-- they realize their captors aren't from Earth. And they have taken the five teenagers to an otherworldly zoo-- where the exhibits are humans.
When a forbidden attraction develops between Cora and Cassian, she realizes that her best chance of escape might be in the arms of her own jailer-- though that would mean leaving the others behind. Can Cora manage to save herself and her companions? And if so... what world lies beyond the walls of their cage?
Why I'm Waiting:
1. DAT COVER.
2. HUMANS IN A ZOO?!
3. ALIENS?!
4. The names!!! Cassian is such a cool name, and I've always wanted to name one of my characters in a WIP Cora!!!

Doesn't it?! :)
DeleteOohh, that sounds awesome! I had this on my TBR automatically because it's a Megan Shepherd book. But I hadn't read the synopsis until now.

I haven't read a Megan Shepherd book yet, although I do have her first book on my shelf waiting for me to get to it! I'm hoping to very soon, especially since the last one comes out soon!
DeleteOooohhhhh! That sounds verrrrrrry interesting indeed! I'm usually a paranormal reader, but the otherworldly but definitely has me intrigued! I have been ever so slowly adding non-paranormal reads to my palate. They're still not straight up contemps, but they have enough "weird" or "thriller" to them and this one definitely has the "weird" part down pat! I may need to add this to my TBR Mountain of Doom! :D
ReplyDeleteHere's my WoW
Have a GREAT day!
