Happy Holidays! Merry Xmas! Welcome to the Xmas Day edition of Waiting on Wednesday!
Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly feature hosted at Breaking The Spine that spotlights those can't-wait-to-get-my-hands-on-them books that we are eagerly awaiting!
This book that I'm super excited about is Uninvited by Sophie Jordan!
Goodreads summary:
"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."
Why am I eagerly awaiting Uninvited by Sophie Jordan? Well, that cover draws you in, then you got that super interesting blurb that reminds me of Gattaca & Minority Report (your genes determine your life & catching killers before they kill) and if you add to that the two very raving reviews from Maja from The Nocturnal Library & Octavia from Read Sleep Repeat... I just can't wait to get my hands on this book!
What are you all (im)patiently awaiting this week?
