This week I'm waiting on:
Going Rogue: An AKA Novel
by Robin Benway
To be published in January 2014
by Walker Children's Books
Okay, this is not the real cover, so don't get worried. Here's the (real) synopsis…
Being permanently based in a local New York City high school as an undercover operative has its moments, good and bad, for 16-year-old safecracker Maggie Silver. Pros: More quality time with her former mark-turned-boyfriend Jesse Oliver and insanely cool best friend, Roux. Getting to spend quality time with her semi-retired and international spy honorary uncle, Angelo. Cons: High school and the accompanying cliques, bad lunches, and frustratingly simple locker combinations. But when Maggie's parents are falsely accused of stealing priceless gold coins, Maggie uses her safecracking skills to try and clear their names. Too bad it only serves to bring the wrath of the now corrupt Collective down on all of them. Can Maggie and her "new team" defeat their former allies?
I really liked Also Known As -- you can read my review here -- so I'm excited to see what Maggie and the gang are up to next!
What book are you impatiently waiting for? Let me know in comments or leave me a link so I can check it out!
OMG I had no idea that a)Robin had a new book coming out and b) that it was a sequel to AKA!! Thank you for blogging about this- I've added it to my GR shelf and will be hunting Netgalley for whenever they put up the e-galley, lol.
ReplyDeleteI hope they put it on NetGalley. I'm so excited too!!!!
DeleteIs this a series? If so, I need to get started I reading it.
ReplyDeleteYes -- the first book was released this year and you have plenty of time to get caught up before the next book comes out!
DeleteI still need to read the first book. It's been on my TBR for forever. I didn't realize it was a series. Great pick!

DeleteLooks good. Hope you get to read it soon!

ReplyDeleteMy WoW
I really enjoyed the first book and am excited for the second!
DeleteOH, I didn't know there was going to be a sequel!!! I loved AKA! And Roux, especially Roux! This should be fun. I hope the author narrates the audio again!
ReplyDeleteDid she?? That's so cool...
DeleteI've never read anything by Robin Benway! I was about to say - didn't that book already come out? But this is the sequel. Interesting! I hope you get to read it soon! :)
ReplyDeleteCheck out my WoW post!
Yep, Also Known As came out, and this one is Going Rogue….
DeleteOh, yay! I'm so excited about this. I didn't know there was going to be a sequel. How fun!! I really loved AKA, so I'm super excited to read the sequel... AND to see the cover! :)
ReplyDeleteI was so happy when I found this…..
DeleteBut NOT the real cover, just my amateur re-do of the AKA cover since the new one doesn't have a cover yet...
I haven't read Also Known As, but it sound like a fun series. Great pick hon!
ReplyDeleteIt is fun!
DeleteIt's a really fun book -- definitely give it a try!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read the first book but it IS on my wish list (and trust me, my wish list only contains like 15 books ATM). I am hoping to read it before the next one comes out!
ReplyDelete- Juhina @ Maji Bookshelf
15 books??? Seriously?
DeleteYay! I loved AKA and I'm so excited for Going Rogue! The synopsis sounds awesome :)
ReplyDeleteMe too...
DeleteYES YES YES YES YES!!!!! I was hoping there would be a second book. Let me say again: YES!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWell, you're not excited at all….
DeleteWhat?? That's not the real cover? Oh, I see. Did you make that based on the last one? Interesting, I'd never heard of the Also Known As series before. Sounds like a lot of fun - I'm a fan of Ally Carter's Heist Society, and it looks like this is right up its alley.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I just didn't want to use the Goodreads no-cover cover. So I modified the original...
DeleteI feel so behind.... I haven't even read AKA yet!
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought the cover looked awfully familiar... lol But then I read underneath it. I still need to read the first book but both sound like great fun! :)
ReplyDeleteYay-there's going to be a sequel! I hoped but wasn't sure. Hope the cover will match the original in a cute way :)
ReplyDeleteI read half of Also Known As but haven't finished it yet! It's really good so far :) Great pick and I'm a new follower.

I still need to read AKA, and I've heard such good things about it, I bought a copy a few months ago. Now I just need to find time to read it, that's always the tough part. :-) Great WoW pick!
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of this book before now but it sounds great!

ReplyDeleteSounds intriguing. Never heard of it. Thank you for sharing this with us.

ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of this before, but it sounds pretty cool! I will definitely be checking it out. :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI will definitely be reading this! I really liked AKA, so I'm glad there are more books.
