Waiting on Wednesday #99

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

UNINVITED BY SOPHIE JORDAN

Goodreads Description:

The Scarlet Letter meets Minority Report in bestselling author Sophie Jordan's chilling new novel about a teenage girl who is ostracized when her genetic test proves she's destined to become a murderer.

When Davy Hamilton's tests come back positive for Homicidal Tendency Syndrome (HTS)-aka the kill gene-she loses everything. Her boyfriend ditches her, her parents are scared of her, and she can forget about her bright future at Juilliard. Davy doesn't feel any different, but genes don't lie. One day she will kill someone.

Only Sean, a fellow HTS carrier, can relate to her new life. Davy wants to trust him; maybe he's not as dangerous as he seems. Or maybe Davy is just as deadly.

The first in a two-book series, Uninvited tackles intriguing questions about free will, identity, and human nature. Steeped in New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan's trademark mix of gripping action and breathless romance, this suspenseful tale is perfect for fans of James Patterson, Michelle Hodkin, and Lisa McMann.


Hardcover, 384 pages
Expected publication: January 28th 2014 by HarperTeen

I loved the Firelight series by Jordan and I think this book sounds even better. I cannot wait to read Uninvited :) I kind of adore the cover and I love the summary. Hoping I will love this book a lot. <3

  7. I am really looking forward to this one, too; although from the title, I didn't expect the actual blurb. It sounded more like a ya horror. Hope it's good!
