WOW: Waiting on Wednesday

July 14, 2010 WOW 6

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly post started by Breaking the Spine. It is a feature showcases upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.


 The Dark and Hollow Places by Carrie Ryan – March 22, 2011

There are many things that Annah would like to forget: the look on her sister’s face when she and Elias left her behind in the Forest of Hands and Teeth, her first glimpse of the horde as they found their way to the Dark City, the sear of the barbed wire that would scar her for life. But most of all, Annah would like to forget the morning Elias left her for the Recruiters.

Annah’s world stopped that day and she’s been waiting for him to come home ever since. Without him, her life doesn’t feel much different from that of the dead that roam the wasted city around her. Then she meets Catcher and everything feels alive again.

Except, Catcher has his own secrets — dark, terrifying truths that link him to a past Annah’s longed to forget, and to a future too deadly to consider. And now it’s up to Annah — can she continue to live in a world drenched in the blood of the living? Or is death the only escape from the Return’s destruction?

    I can’t believe we have to wait until next year. This week I finished The Forest of Hands and Teeth and I’m half way through Dead Tossed Waves. Dark and Hallow places can’t come out fast enough.
