"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted
over at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases we're eagerly
anticipating.
This week, what's really got my pages in a twist is...
(The
Lone City #2)
Publication

Hardcover, 384 pages, HarperTeen
Genres:
YA, Dystopian
Violet is on the run. After the
Duchess of the Lake catches Violet with Ash, the hired companion at the Palace
of the Lake, Violet has no choice but to escape the Jewel or face certain
death. So along with Ash and her best friend, Raven, Violet runs away from her
unbearable life of servitude.
But no one said leaving the Jewel
would be easy. As they make their way through the circles of the Lone City,
Regimentals track their every move, and the trio barely manages to make it out
unscathed and into the safe haven they were promised—a mysterious house in the
Farm.
But there’s a rebellion brewing,
and Violet has found herself in the middle of it. Alongside a new ally, Violet
discovers her Auguries are much more powerful than she ever imagined. But is
she strong enough to rise up against the Jewel and everything she has ever
known?
The White Rose is a raw,
captivating sequel to The Jewel that fans won’t be able to put down until the
final shocking moments.
My Thoughts
I thought the first book was good, so I’m looking forward to
reading book two. Hopefully there’s better character development in this one,
though.
What book are you waiting for this Wednesday?
I enjoyed the first book, I just need to re-read it or skim it though because I read it so long ago. I'm definitely looking forward to the sequel. Great pick!
