Waiting on Wednesday (7)

Now Playing: Rescue Me - Kerrie Roberts


Hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine


Today's picks aren't coming out next week, but in two days! If they're not on your to be read list or preorder pile, do it now!



From the ever-awesome imagination of Nova Ren Suma's comes 17 & Gone and The Art of Wishing comes from YA debut Lindsay Ribar: 



Goodreads says: 




Seventeen-year-old Lauren is having visions of girls who have gone missing. And all these girls have just one thing in common—they are 17 and gone without a trace. As Lauren struggles to shake these waking nightmares, impossible questions demand urgent answers: Why are the girls speaking to Lauren? How can she help them? And… is she next? As Lauren searches for clues, everything begins to unravel, and when a brush with death lands her in the hospital, a shocking truth emerges, changing everything.



With complexity and richness, Nova Ren Suma serves up a beautiful, visual, fresh interpretation of what it means to be lost.



                                                                     Goodreads says: 

He can grant her wishes, but only she can save his life. Margo McKenna has a plan for just about everything, from landing the lead in her high school play to getting into a good college. So when she finds herself in possession of a genie's ring and the chance to make three wishes, she doesn't know what to do. Why should she put her life into someone else's hands?


But Oliver is more than just a genie -- he's also a sophomore at Margo's high school, and he's on the run from a murderer. As he and Margo grow closer, she discovers that it will take more than three wishes to save him.

A whole lot more.




And those are my top two for now! What are you waiting on this week or are you reading/recovering from Clockwork Princess?
