Waiting On Wednesday - #28: Taken by Erin Bowman








{ ++ }  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.









I'm Waiting On...

There are no men in Claysoot. There are boys—but every one of them vanishes at midnight on his eighteenth birthday. The ground shakes, the wind howls, a blinding light descends...and he’s gone.

They call it the Heist.

Gray Weathersby’s eighteenth birthday is mere months away, and he’s prepared to meet his fate–until he finds a strange note from his mother and starts to question everything he’s been raised to accept: the Council leaders and their obvious secrets. The Heist itself. And what lies beyond the Wall that surrounds Claysoot–a structure that no one can cross and survive.

Climbing the Wall is suicide, but what comes after the Heist could be worse. Should he sit back and wait to be taken–or risk everything on the hope of the other side?

Why It's Worth Waiting On: The more books I see coming out in 2013, the more excited I am!  Between the synopsis, which sounds so spooky, and this GORGEOUS cover, I absolutely cannot wait to get my hands on a copy of this book.  It's no secret I'm a HUGE fan of male POV in YA, so I'm already swooning at the prospect of meeting Gray!   


Be sure to leave me a link to YOUR WoW post so I can visit and we can squee together!
