Waiting On Wednesday - #26: Dualed by Elsie Chapman








{ ++ }  This weekly event/feature is graciously hosted by Jill of Breaking the Spine. You know that feeling you get when you're browsing upcoming books on Goodreads or Amazon and one strikes your fancy?  Maybe you squee.  Maybe you giggle to yourself.  Maybe you bounce in your seat. We all get excited (I do a combination of all three of the previous choices...) about new books, be it a favorite author you're familiar with, or someone whose work you'll be reading for the first time.  Jill's meme gives us the chance to spotlight what we are anxiously awaiting this week.

 You or your Alt? Only one will survive. 

"Dualed" is a thrilling high-concept YA where citizens must prove their worth by killing their Alts--twins raised by other families. 


The city of Kersh is a safe haven, but the price of safety is high. West Grayer has trained as a fighter, preparing for the day when her assignment arrives and she will have one month to hunt down and kill her Alt. Survival means advanced schooling, a good job, marriage--life. But then a tragic misstep shakes West's confidence. Stricken with grief and guilt, she's no longer certain that she's the best version of herself, the version worthy of a future. If she is to have any chance of winning, she must stop running not only from her Alt, but also from love . . . though both have the power to destroy her. 


Elsie Chapman's suspenseful debut weaves unexpected romance into a novel full of fast-paced action and thought-provoking philosophy. When the story ends, discussions will begin about this future society where every adult is a murderer and every child knows there is another out there who just might be better.




Why it's worth waiting on: WOW.  I MEAN...WOW!  Between the AMAZING synopsis - just the bone-chilling idea of there being another you...and having to best that "alt" is creepy!  Plus, Elsie is fabulously sweet and friendly.  I cannot WAIT to read this one!



Your turn!  What are y'all waiting on this week?
