“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:
Replica (Replica #1) by Lauren Oliver
From Goodreads:
Gemma
has been in and out of hospitals since she was born. 'A sickly child', her lonely life to date has
revolved around her home, school and one best friend, Alice. But when she discovers her father's
connection to the top secret Haven research facility, currently hitting the
headlines and under siege by religious fanatics, Gemma decides to leave the
sanctuary she's always known to find the institute and determine what is going
on there and why her father's name seems inextricably linked to it.
Amidst
the frenzy outside the institute's walls, Lyra—or number 24 as she is know as
at Haven a and a fellow experimental subject known only as 72, manage to
escape. Encountering a world they never
knew existed outside the walls of their secluded upbringing, they meet Gemma
and, as they try to understand Haven's purpose together, they uncover some
earth-shattering secrets that will change the lives of both girls forever…
Why I’m Waiting:
So
I first heard about this book from all the BookTubers I watch after BEA and it
just sounded interesting and the book itself seems like an experience with
three different ways to read it just yeah I'm in. I got an ARC of this one and I am working hard to get through my stack so I can dive into this one!
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've always enjoyed Lauren Oliver's books. This one sounds amazing too.Hope you enjoy it!

ReplyDeleteI'm so conflicted on which way to read lol
DeleteI have only read one book by Lauren Oliver before and I didn't enjoy it that much, but the interesting way Replica is written makes me want to read it. Also, like you said a lot of people in booktube are talking about it, so that makes me excited.

ReplyDeleteI know it's simple yet beautiful!
DeleteThis is an incredibly unique way to tell a story (or several)! I can honestly say that I'm not even slightly interested in this book, but I'm very curious to see what people will think of it. I hope you enjoy this book when you get the chance to read it!
