Waiting on Wednesday!

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted here, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

My WoW book is:

Above by Leah Bobet. Slated for release in 2012, here's the Goodreads infos:

Matthew's father had lion's feet and his mother had gills, and both fled the modern-day city to live in underground Safe, a secret community of freaks, ghost-whisperers, and disabled outcasts hidden beyond the subways and sewers. Raised underground, Matthew is responsible for the keeping of both Safe's histories and the traumatized shapeshifter Ariel, the girl he took in - and can't stop from constantly running away.

But Safe is no longer safe: the night after a frightening encounter in the sewers, Safe's founder Atticus is murdered by the one person Safe ever exiled: mad Corner, whose coup is backed by an army of mindless, whispering shadows.   ...more

Why I can't wait till 2012: This book sounds incredible. If I could pre-order it on Amazon, I would. It just sounds like such an exciting and challenging book, with (what looks like) strong themes and a compelling story to tell.

Plus, how gorgeous is that cover?

    @Deea, Wow, thanks! I'm ridiculously proud of the fact that I made the graphics myself, despite having less artistic sense than a rock, so really, thanks!

    @LC, Danya, piscesmuse and Athena - Thanks so much for stopping by!
