Waiting on Wednesday: Gleanings by Neal Shusterman

Gleanings by Neal Shusterman. 432 p. Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, November 8, 2022. 9781534499973.

Happy final Wednesday of the school year! Waiting on Wednesday features Gleanings by Neal Shusterman. His Arc of the Scythe trilogy is an eighth grade favorite here at TMS. I know I can't wait to return to the world with this collection of stories. Gleanings releases on November 8. 

Here's the publisher synopsis: The New York Times bestselling Arc of the Scythe series continues with thrilling stories that span the timeline. Storylines continue. Origin stories are revealed. And new Scythes emerge!

There are still countless tales of the Scythedom to tell. Centuries passed between the Thunderhead cradling humanity and Scythe Goddard trying to turn it upside down. For years humans lived in a world without hunger, disease, or death with Scythes as the living instruments of population control.

Neal Shusterman—along with collaborators David Yoon, Jarrod Shusterman, SofĂ­a Lapuente, Michael H. Payne, Michelle Knowlden, and Joelle Shusterman—returns to the world throughout the timeline of the Arc of a Scythe series. Discover secrets and histories of characters you’ve followed for three volumes and meet new heroes, new foes, and some figures in between.

Gleanings shows just how expansive, terrifying, and thrilling the world that began with the Printz Honor–winning Scythe truly is.
