"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
My selection for this week is:
The Other Life by Susanne Winnacker
Publication Date: February 1st 2012
Publisher: Usborne
Summary from Goodreads:
3 years, 1 month, 1 week and 6 days since I’d seen daylight. One-fifth of my life. 98,409,602 seconds since the heavy, steel door had fallen shut and sealed us off from the world
Sherry has lived with her family in a sealed bunker since things went wrong up above. But when they run out of food, Sherry and her dad must venture outside. There they find a world of devastation, desolation...and the Weepers: savage, mutant killers.
When Sherry's dad is snatched, she joins forces with gorgeous but troubled Joshua - an Avenger, determined to destroy the Weepers.
But can Sherry keep her family and Joshua safe, when his desire for vengeance threatens them all?

What I think:
Dystopian titles always tend to not disappoint me. The Other Life sounds incredibly unique and interesting with a post apocalyptic feel to it. It's one of the titles of this year that I simply can't wait to get my hands on.
Ahhhh! I'm SO excited for this!! It sounds so incredibly disturbing and amazing!
