"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 Replaced
(The Taking #2)
Publication Date: April 28, 2015
Hardcover,
368 pages, HarperTeen
Genres: Sci-Fi, Young Adult
Romantic and action-packed, The
Replaced is the gripping second installment in the Taking trilogy.
Kyra hasn't been the same since
she returned from her mysterious five-year disappearance. Now, on the run from
the NSA, Kyra is forced to hide out with others who, like her, have been
Returned. Yet she is determined to find Tyler, the boy she loves who was also
abducted—all because of her. When her group intercepts a message that Tyler
might still be alive but is in the hands of a shadowy government organization
that experiments on the Returned, Kyra knows it's a risk to go after him. What
if it's a trap? And worse, what if the returned Tyler isn't the same boy she
lost?
Perfect for fans of The Fifth
Wave and the Body Finder series, The Replaced is both chilling and explosive,
with creepy, otherworldly elements and twisty, psychological thrills that will
have you questioning what exactly it means to be human.
My Thoughts
The first book ended on a cliffhanger, so I’m ready to get
my hands on this, even though the book was kind of just okay. Good, not great.
Know what I mean?
What book are you waiting for this Wednesday?
I thought The Taking was a lot of fun. And like you pointed out, that cliffhanger! I have to find out what happens next!

Sounds interesting. I haven't read any of the books you mentioned, yet. Looking forward to your review after you've read it.
