“Waiting
On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that
spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating. Basically books that are not yet out that we
are dying to get our hands on. This
week’s pick is:
Lifeblood (Everlife #2) by Gena Showalter
Out: March
2017
From Goodreads:
It's
time to do what I was born to do. It's
time to arise and shine. Whatever I
face—be it war persecution, hunger, simple threats of my Second-death—I will
not be deterred. Night will be replaced
by day, and those who cry in the dark will rejoice in the morning. The day is about to dawn. Time is short. Let the battle begin.
My
Firstlife is over, but my Everlife is only now beginning.
With
her last living breath, Tenley "Ten" Lockwood made her choice and
picked her realm in the Everlife. Now,
as the war between Troika and Myriad rages, she must face the consequences.
Because
Ten possesses a rare supernatural ability to absorb and share light, the Powers
That Be have the highest expectations for her future—and the enemy wants her
neutralized. Fighting to save her
Secondlife, she must learn about her realm from the ground up while launching
her first missions: convincing a select
group of humans to join her side before they die. No pressure, right?
But
Ten's competition is Killian, the boy she can't foget—the one who gave up
everything for her happiness. He has
only one shot at redemption: beating Ten
at a game she's never even played. As
their throw-downs heat up, so do their undeniable feelings, and soon, Ten will
have to make another choice. Love…or
victory.
Why I’m Waiting:
I
just adored Firstlife so much (review) and I was instantly wanting book two in
my hands when I finished the last page.
So yeah this is on my anticipated reads of 2017 because I need to know
what happens next. Also having finally
gotten myself to read the summary….OMG!
Now my need is even more because OMG WHAT!!!
What
are you waiting on? Tell me below what
you think of this title and leave a link to your WoW as well so I can check it
out!
I just went and read your review of the first book -- and now this blurb again, and this is just such a unique premise for this series! Not sure if it's my kind of thing, but I admire the premise of this! here's mine: http://editingeverything.com/blog/2016/07/20/wow-catch-killer/
