Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.
And speaking of Jills, my WoW pick was written by one.
Most of you guys know how much I love mysteries. And 90s references. And body switching stories. And friends with chemistry stories.
So when I found a book that had ALL those things in one, I was beyond excited. And when I find a book that seems tailor-made for me, I'm always scared I'll be disappointed.
I wasn't. I LOVED Slide by Jill Hathaway!
So it already seems like I've been waiting forever for the next book in that series:
Impostor by Jill Hathaway
Balzer + Bray
Expected Publication March 2013
If you haven't read Slide, you can read me rave about it here. Everyone thinks Vee is narcoleptic, but actually she slides into other people's consciousness. In Slide, she used that power to catch a killer.
Can you read the tagline on top of that cover of Impostor: What if a Killer Were In Control of You?
Eeeep. Here's the synopsis:
Vee Bell’s gift (or curse) of “sliding”—slipping into the mind of another person and experiencing life, briefly, through his or her eyes—has been somewhat under control since she unwillingly witnessed the horrific deaths of her classmates six months ago. But just as things are getting back to normal, Vee has a very bizarre experience: she loses consciousness and finds herself in a deserted area, at the edge of a cliff, with the broken body of the boy who took advantage of her on the rocks below. As Vee finds herself in stranger and stranger situations with no memory of getting there, she begins to suspect that someone she knows has the ability to slide—and that this “slider” is using Vee to exact revenge on his or her enemies.I'm scared already!
I can't wait!!!!
What book are you counting the days for? Please tell me -- or leave me a link -- in comments and I'll visit you back.
I loved Slide, too! When I finished it, I wasn't aware that there was going to be a sequel, so I was kind of sad. And then news of a second book reached me and I kind of freaked out. And now I want to go back and re-read Slide. I'm getting excited all over again!!!! :D Here's my WoW post. Happy Wednesday! :D
ReplyDeleteSame. And then I read about the sequel, and I was happy!!!!
DeleteI am looking forward to reading Slide hopefully soon so many books to read my TBR pile is huge! lol Great choice!

ReplyDeleteI LOVED Slide! I really hope Vi and Rollins get together. I'm a total sucker for a friends turned romantic love. I also love body switching type of stories. Would be so cool to see the world from another perspective.
ReplyDeleteOooh, haven't read Slide yet but it sounds intriguing. :) Great pick! I love the covers for both Slide and Impostor.
ReplyDeleteRandi @ Cardigans, Coffee and Bookmarks

I still haven't read Slide, I want to, but I'm a slacker! Great pick!
ReplyDeleteI still haven't read Slide and it's on my TBR list! But I'll someday! :) Great pick!
ReplyDeleteTanja @ Ja Ĩitam, a ti?
I too loved Slide, so I see why you chose this as your WOW pick! :) The summary definitely sounds cool- can't wait!
ReplyDeleteI'm not waiting for anything in particular.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the tag line.
I haven't read Slide but it's on my list! I always thought it sounded awesome but I never came across it at the right time. And boy do I love some 90's references, those were my days, you know?
ReplyDeleteI have seen Slide like a million times but never picked it up (sorry). Someday I will get to it. I just there were more hours in the day so I can spend more time reading (or maybe I just need less work).
