Waiting on Wednesday #13

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

ARTICLE 5 BY KRISTEN SIMMONS

Goodreads Description:

New York, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C., have been abandoned.

The Bill of Rights has been revoked, and replaced with the Moral Statutes.

There are no more police—instead, there are soldiers. There are no more fines for bad behavior—instead, there are arrests, trials, and maybe worse. People who get arrested usually don't come back.

Seventeen-year-old Ember Miller is old enough to remember that things weren’t always this way. Living with her rebellious single mother, it’s hard for her to forget that people weren’t always arrested for reading the wrong books or staying out after dark. It’s hard to forget that life in the United States used to be different.

Ember has perfected the art of keeping a low profile. She knows how to get the things she needs, like food stamps and hand-me-down clothes, and how to pass the random home inspections by the military. Her life is as close to peaceful as circumstances allow.

That is, until her mother is arrested for noncompliance with Article 5 of the Moral Statutes. And one of the arresting officers is none other than Chase Jennings…the only boy Ember has ever loved.

Hardcover, 368 pages

Expected publication: January 31st 2012 by Tor Teen (first published January 13th 2012)

Pre-Order it here.

I can't wait for this book. I love Dystopia, and this book seems amazing! :) Pretty cover, amazing summary, and maybe some Romance. Just my kind of book :D I hope, at least ;) Glad I don't have to wait so long for it though. I hate waiting forever for things I want.
What are you waiting for?

Review: Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi

I'm not sure how to describe this book. It didn't start well for me, for the first 120+ pages I had trouble concentrating; found the writing to not be so good even though the story was great. But then things started changing, everything got so much more exciting and I didn't see any flaws in the writing anymore.

I just could not stop reading after that point. And I am so so glad I got this book, and that I didn't stop when I felt things were hard to get past. It was all worth it.

I loved the story in this book. I loved everything about how the earth was, and how the people were. I loved the Aether. Even though it was creepy and scary, I found it to also be amazing. Didn't really like the Smarteyes, but it would've been awesome to have one ;)

I really liked Aria. Wasn't sure about her at first, but she is awesome! :) I loved Perry. Didn't really like the way/place where he lived, but I do suppose it was the only way ;p Perry was a very strong and kind and loving person. And oh, I just adore him. Loved the way he loved his nephew. And I hope we get more of that in the next book :)

The book had so much stuff happening at all times, and I loved it all. Well, except for some parts with Roar. I kind of really hate it when the girl laughs and talks with another guy than the love interest :p But then, that may just be me ;p I did like Roar. Sort of. Mostly. I loved Cinder :D And I hope he has a bigger part in the next book.

I don't want to say too much, because I want you to experience it yourself. This is an amazing book.

There is this one thing I hated though, the end. Well, I mostly loved the ending, the last few sentences, but I hated that months had pasted. I really hate it when time moves :p But other than that, I loved it :D This is a book worth reading, and I cannot wait for the next one :)
