Waiting on Wednesday

WoW is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine, in which we share the titles we are eagerly anticipating.



Unhinged by A.G. Howard. 384 p. Amulet Books, January 7, 2014. 9781419709715.

Publisher synopsis: Alyssa Gardner has been down the rabbit hole. She was crowned Queen of the Red Court and faced a bandersnatch. She saved the life of Jeb, the boy she loves, and escaped the machinations of the the disturbingly appealing Morpheus. Now all she has to do is graduate high school.

That would be easier without her mother, freshly released from an asylum, acting overly protective and suspicious. And it would be much simpler if the mysterious Morpheus didn't show up for school one day to tempt her with another dangerous quest in the dar, challenging Wonderland-where she (partly) belongs.

Could she leave Jeb and her parents behind again, for the sake of a man she knows has manipulated her before? Will her mother and Jeb trust her to do what's right. Readers will swoon over the satisfying return to Howard's bold, sensual reimagining of Carroll's classic.

I totally loved Splintered, the author's debut and am so psyched about this sequel.

  2. I really enjoyed Splintered and am excited for this one, but I hate this cover. He looks so emo. Oh, well. I'm definitely excited to see what's going on in Wonderland. Great pick!

  3. Heh, I feel like I need to be the tie-breaker or something on the cover after the previous two commenters had opposite opinions.... I don't know, I think it goes quite well with the first cover! haha. Anyways, I'm really curious where the story will go after Splintered!
