Waiting On Wednesday:


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine. It highlights the books that we are most anxiously awaiting!



Panic
Lauren Oliver
Expected Publishing Date: March 4, 2014
Hardcover, 416 pages

(summary from Goodreads)

Panic began as so many things do in Carp, a dead-end town of 12,000 people in the middle of nowhere: because it was summer, and there was nothing else to do.

Heather never thought she would compete in Panic, a legendary game played by graduating seniors, where the stakes are high and the payoff is even higher. She’d never thought of herself as fearless, the kind of person who would fight to stand out. But when she finds something, and someone, to fight for, she will discover that she is braver than she ever thought.

Dodge has never been afraid of Panic. His secret will fuel him, and get him all the way through the game, he’s sure of it. But what he doesn't know is that he’s not the only one with a secret. Everyone has something to play for.

For Heather and Dodge, the game will bring new alliances, unexpected revelations, and the possibility of first love for each of them—and the knowledge that sometimes the very things we fear are those we need the most.


I can't wait to read Lauren Oliver's new book. Her first book, Before I Fall, blew me away and I loved Delirium as well. Her writing is beautiful and poetic and her characters have a way of getting into my head. This book sounds like it will be a mix between the two, and Im excited to see the new things she can bring to the table. 

Any other Lauren Oliver fans out there? Does this book sound as good as her others?
