Wednesday Wishes

Well I have a lot that have jumped onto this list, if you glance at my Goodreads account you’ll see that’s an understatement.

So I’m just picking the ones that I REALLY want.


Acid by Emma Pass

AcidGet it: Amazon | Goodreads
Genre: YA Sci/Fi or YA Dystopian
Series: N/A

Even a vampire has to face her inner demons… Kat Redding is the very thing she hunts: a vampire, thirsting for blood, capable of killing any creature unlucky enough to get in her path. The difference is, Kat kills her own kind in order to protect human Purebloods. She’s good at what she does. Good enough to earn the nickname Lady Death—and the enmity of every bloodthirsty being around. But now a vampire Count is intent on merging his House with a werewolf cult to create a force of terrifying power. Kat can’t allow that to happen. Even if it means taking on a den of weres and a vampire more ruthless than any she’s encountered before. She has the weapons, the skill, and a few allies. But that may not be enough to eliminate the Count before her own dark nature rises to the surface—and costs her whatever is left of her humanity…

2113. In Jenna Strong’s world, ACID – the most brutal, controlling police force in history – rule supreme. No throwaway comment or muttered dissent goes unnoticed – or unpunished. And it was ACID agents who locked Jenna away for life, for a bloody crime she struggles to remember.

The only female inmate in a violent high-security prison, Jenna has learned to survive by any means necessary. And when a mysterious rebel group breaks her out, she must use her strength, speed and skill to stay one step ahead of ACID – and to uncover the truth about what really happened on that dark night two years ago.

“The only female inmate in a violent high-security prison”, yep that line right there. Sold and sold.

The 5 Wave by Rick Yancey

The 5th Wave (The Fifth Wave, #1)Get it: Amazon | Goodreads
Genre: YA Dystopian
Series: The 5 Wave, book 1

The Passage meets Ender’s Game in an epic new series from award-winning author Rick Yancey.

After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the 2nd, only the lucky escape. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive. After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one.

Now, it’s the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely stretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them. The beings who only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see. Who have scattered Earth’s last survivors. To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Walker. Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassie’s only hope for rescuing her brother—or even saving herself. But Cassie must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. To give up or to get up.

All of my GR friends are going crazy for this one and I have to admit it sounds chillingly amazing.

Wander Dust by Michelle Warren

Wander Dust (The Seraphina Parrish Trilogy, #1)Get it: Amazon | Goodreads
Genre: Paranormal YA 
Series: The Seraphina Parrish Trilogy, book 1

Ever since her sixteenth birthday, strange things keep happening to Seraphina Parrish.

The Lady in Black… burns Sera’s memories.

Unexplainable Premonitions… catapult her to other cities.

The Grungy Gang… wants to kill her.

And a beautiful, mysterious boy… stalks her.

But when Sera moves to Chicago, and her aunt reveals their family connection to a centuries old, secret society, she is immediately thrust into an unbelievable fantasy world, leading her on a quest to unravel the mysteries that plague her. In the end, their meanings crash into an epic struggle of loyalty and betrayal, and she’ll be forced to choose between the boy who has stolen her heart and the thing she desires most.

Wander Dust is the breathtaking fantasy that will catapult you through a story of time, adventure, and love.

This book deals with time travel. The Wanderer can time travel, the Protector watches out for the Wander, and the Seer is the one that connects them. Sounds really cool

I had actually forgotten I wanted this one. Thank goodness for Goodreads, keeps me straight.
