10/23/13: W...W...W... Wednesday: So Much to Read, So Little Time

Wednesdays meme is hosted by Should Be Reading.


  • Currently Reading
    • I am reading Allegiant (most likely becuase I am writing to you from the past) by Veronica Roth. This is the third and final installment in the Divergent Trilogy. 
  • Finished Reading
    • I've hopefully finished Torment by Lauren Kate *fingers crossed*. 
  • To Read
    • I have a huge amount of books I want to read. I recently bought a lot of books with birthday money. Since there are so many books, there is a picture down below of my book pile.

Waiting on Wednesday: Allegiant



Hey mis amigos!

So since I've talked about House of Hades a great deal, I decided to talk about one of the other books I cannot wait to have on my Kindle. Yes, you guessed it, Allegiant by Veronica Roth.

Title: Allegiant
Cover: I was very excited when I saw this cover. It was unexpected and non descriptive. It still leaves us guessing. 
Author: Veronica Roth
Genre: Dystopian, YA, Romance
Goodreads Blurb: One choice will define you.

What if your whole world was a lie?
What if a single revelation—like a single choice—changed everything?
What if love and loyalty made you do things you never expected?


The faction-based society that Tris Prior once believed in is shattered—fractured by violence and power struggles and scarred by loss and betrayal. So when offered a chance to explore the world past the limits she’s known, Tris is ready. Perhaps beyond the fence, she and Tobias will find a simple new life together, free from complicated lies, tangled loyalties, and painful memories.

But Tris’s new reality is even more alarming than the one she left behind. Old discoveries are quickly rendered meaningless. Explosive new truths change the hearts of those she loves. And once again, Tris must battle to comprehend the complexities of human nature—and of herself—while facing impossible choices about courage, allegiance, sacrifice, and love.

Told from a riveting dual perspective, Allegiant, by #1 New York Times best-selling author Veronica Roth, brings the Divergent series to a powerful conclusion while revealing the secrets of the dystopian world that has captivated millions of readers in Divergent and Insurgent.
Published/ing: October 22, 2013 Kathrine Tegen Books
Page Count: 544
Rating: IDK BUT I BET IT'LL BE 5/5
Review: 
So from what I've gathered so far, I think we are going to get the full throttle. We'll get to see what's outside of the gates. What's happened to the rest of the world. And we'll see Tris and Four. Their relationship fully flourish. 

I am extremely excited. 

Future News: 

Well, this is a futuristic post. But the Divergent movie itself will be out in March, so another thing to just get freaking excited for. 

That's it for this post. I'll see you guys on the flip side.

Top Ten Tuesday: Fall TBR


Hey Guys! So yes, I decided to try this. It's going to take some easing into but I want to start blogging more often. So here we go! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. 


September 17: Top Ten Books On My Fall 2013 TBR List (you could do top ten fall releases you plan on reading or just your planned reading list)

*Just gonna say this is extremely hard for me*


     

Books I am Awaiting: 
  • House of Hades by Rick Riordan: October 8, 2013
    • There are no words to my love and desire for this book. I have waited a total of 371 days for this book and I honestly cannot wait. Four days after the release I will actually be going to see him and I will be getting a signed copy of House of Hades. My excitement is to much to contain.
  • Champion by Marie Lu: November 2, 2013
    • I just recently read the first two books and really enjoyed them. I think the author really cut it off so the third book will just flow into it completely. You can read my review here.   
  • Untitled by John Green: Janurary 2, 2014
    • I have no idea what this is but it's by John Green, and that's all that matters.

Free Four: The Transfer, The Initiate, The Son, The Traitor.

A new update from Veronica Roth tells us that there will be more FOUR POINT OF VIEW BOOKS!

Now if you haven't read the first one, I suggest you do. It is thirteen pages of Tobias's point of view from the knife throwing. What was going through his head as he threw knives at his future love interest?

The name of the book is Free Four and it is exceptional.

BUT NOW THERE"S MORE!

There will be four books over the fall and winter months. They will each tell a slightly longer story of our beloved Four.

The books are:

The Transfer coming out September 24th.
The Initiate coming out December 17th.
The Son coming out January 21st.
The Traitor coming out February 11th.


Can't wait to see these books come out with Allegiant coming out this fall too!

Have a good summer!
