Requiem
by Lauren Oliver
Series: Delirium #3
Publisher: HarperTeen
Publication date: 
Genre: YA Dystopian
Purchase: Barnes and Noble/Amazon/Book Depository


Now an active member of the resistance, Lena has been transformed. The nascent rebellion that was under way in Pandemonium has ignited into an all-out revolution in Requiem, and Lena is at the center of the fight. After rescuing Julian from a death sentence, Lena and her friends fled to the Wilds. But the Wilds are no longer a safe haven—pockets of rebellion have opened throughout the country, and the government cannot deny the existence of Invalids. Regulators now infiltrate the borderlands to stamp out the rebels, and as Lena navigates the increasingly dangerous terrain, her best friend, Hana, lives a safe, loveless life in Portland as the fiancée of the young mayor. Requiem is told from both Lena’s and Hana’s points of view. The two girls live side by side in a world that divides them until, at last, their stories converge.
I have been enjoying this series and well you all remember that cliff-hanger right?


Grave Intentions
by Lori Sjoberg
Publisher: Kensington
Publication date: January 3, 2013
Genre: Adult Paranormal
Purchase:Barnes and Noble/Amazon


He’s handsome, reliable, and punctual—the perfect gentleman when you want him to be. But this dream man is Death’s best agent—and now he’s got more than his soul to lose…One act of mercy before dying was all it took to turn soldier David Anderson into a reaper—an immortal who guides souls-of-untimely-death into the afterlife. But the closer he gets to atoning for his mortal sin and finally escaping merciless Fate, the more he feels his own humanity slipping away for good. Until he encounters Sarah Griffith. This skeptical scientist can’t be influenced by his powers—even though she has an unsuspected talent for sensing the dead. And her honesty and irreverent sense of humor reignite his reason for living—and a passion he can’t afford to feel. Now Fate has summoned David to make a devastating last harvest. And he’ll break every hellishly-strict netherworld rule to save Sarah...and gamble on a choice even an immortal can’t win.
This one had me at Reaper and  it doesn't hurt that David Anderson the reaper's best agent sounds down right smexy.. right?


What book(s) are you waiting on?

Ahhhh Requiem! I'm ready to cry my eyes out, throw my book, and scream! I'm sure I'll do all the above. Dying to get more Alex and hopefully very little Julian!

My WOW

I'm so excited to finish off the Delirium series! I'm hoping Requiem really ends it off with bang (I was a tad disappointed with Pandemonium)

Here's my WoW at Bookmunchies (:
