Wanting and Waiting for Wednesdays -1

Greetings! This is my first meme I have started on my own, even though I know there are tons just like this one, I haven't been able to find one exactly like this (but send me a link if you know where to find one!). It is inspired by 'Waiting on Wednesday' -started at Breaking the Spine. Every Wednesday I will post a book I am waiting for it's release in 2012 and also any books I am wanting to read but haven't had the chance yet. Then hopefully, my next IMM will have one of those books in it! (Crossing fingers). Feel free to join me in this bookish meme!

Waiting For:

The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater

If you've been a follower since the very beginning, you may remember my first reviews were on 'The Wolves of Mercy Falls' books. I loved those books so much except the ending of 'Forever' left me disappointed. But I'm expecting this will be a great read! Check it out for yourself - Filled with mystery, romance, and the supernatural, The Raven Boys introduces readers to Richard “Dick” Campbell Gansey, III and Blue Sargent. Gansey has it all—family money, good looks, devoted friends—but he’s looking for much more than that. He is on the hunt to find Glendower, a vanished Welsh king. Legend has it that the first person to find him will be granted a wish—either by seeing him open his eyes, or by cutting out his heart.

Blue Sargent, the daughter of the town psychic in Henrietta, Virginia, has been told for as long as she can remember that if she ever kisses her true love, he will die. But she is too practical to believe in things like true love. Her policy is to stay away from the rich boys at the prestigious Aglionby Academy. The boys there—known as Raven Boys—can only mean trouble. When Gansey and his Raven Boy friends come into her life, Blue realizes how true this is. She never thought her fortune would be a problem. But she was wrong.

Comes out September 18th 2012! Way too long!


Wanting:

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

Last week when I was at the mall, I walked by the book store and saw they has signed copies of this book. I didn't really look at it -because I was determined to find another book- until I had paid and was leaving. I had to leave by then, and so I didn't get the chance to buy a copy signed by the author. Now, it is my number one book on my list! Here's what it's about - Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel's story is about to be completely rewritten. Insightful, bold, irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars is award-winning author John Green's most ambitious and heartbreaking work yet, brilliantly exploring the funny, thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in love

Sounds amazing right? I'm so in love with it already! If you've read it, let me know what you think!


That's all for this week, even though there's tons more!
