Waiting on Wednesday (38)

"Waiting on Wednesday" is a weekly bookish meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where book bloggers discuss the books that they are most anxiously waiting for! (And this fabulous button was designed by my dear blogger friend Lindsay at The Violet Hour)

This week I'm waiting on...

Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout
© 6 December 2011 by Entangled Publishing
Starting over sucks.

When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I’d pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring…. until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up.

And then he opened his mouth.

Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something…unexpected happens.

The hot alien living next door marks me.

You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon’s touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I’m getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades.

If I don’t kill him first, that is.
I have heard that this is basically AWESOME.  I have it from NetGalley and my goal for this coming weekend if to plow through my current reads and get this one started! I mean, it sounds super interesting and different, right?! :)


Also, I figured I would combine this post with W.W.W. Wednesdays...so here is some more info about my reading for this week! To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…Grab the logo...and post your link at Should Be Reading!

  1. Ohhh I totally had OBSIDIAN as my WoW last week. It looks so awesome. If you haven't read HALF-BLOOD by Jennifer L. Armentrout, you should get on that! It was a great book. I really like her writing. Great pick!

    Feel free to check out my WoW here.

  12. I just started Obsidian last night.  It's cracking me up so far with the Katy/Daemon banter and it's really good!  I LOVE Katy.  I think you'll enjoy it, Jessi.

    Also, I JUST finished Hushed.  It was a creepy/fascinating read!  Kept me up way late to finish it.
