Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating.This week, I am going to be a copycat, because I found someone's WoW, that looked so exciting, I have to take it for my own. I'm waiting for Mind Games by Kiersten White.
Goodreads Book Description:
Fia was born with flawless instincts. Her first impulse, her gut feeling, is always exactly right. Her sister, Annie, is blind to the world around her—except when her mind is gripped by strange visions of the future.
Trapped in a school that uses girls with extraordinary powers as tools for corporate espionage, Annie and Fia are forced to choose over and over between using their abilities in twisted, unthinkable ways… or risking each other’s lives by refusing to obey.
In a stunning departure from her New York Times bestselling Paranormalcy trilogy, Kiersten White delivers a slick, edgy, heartstoppingly intense psychological thriller about two sisters determined to protect each other—no matter the cost.
Why I Am Excited: I love school books that deal with people with supernatural abilities. I also love books about sisters :-) AND psychological thrillers. So basically, a bunch of my favorite topics all wrapped into one.
Why I am Worried: This could all fall apart, if the characters aren't solid (we have to really care about the two sisters and believe in their relationship), and the pacing has to be pitch perfect in a psychological thriller. That said, this could be REALLY good.
What are you waiting for this week?
