Waiting on Wednesday #16 - The Ward by Jordana Frankel

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.




 Expected publication: April 30th 2013  
 Publisher: Katherine Tegen Books

Sixteen-year-old Ren is a daredevil mobile racer who will risk everything to survive in the Ward, what remains of a water-logged Manhattan. To save her sister, who is suffering from a deadly illness thought to be caused by years of pollution, Ren accepts a secret mission from the government: to search for a freshwater source in the Ward, with the hope of it leading to a cure.

However, she never expects that her search will lead to dangerous encounters with a passionate young scientist; a web of deceit and lies; and an earth-shattering mystery that’s lurking deep beneath the water’s rippling surface.
That cover is epic and I love dystopia. This one sounds good. 

     What's your Waiting on Wednesday book this week?

    This one is on a lot of blogs. I think it is because it sounds so different than what else is out there right now. Great choice!

    This one sounds great, but I keep getting disappointed by environemntal dystopians because I'm an Environmental Geography student and the science never adds up! I'll definitely read this though because it does sound awesome :)

    My WOW this week

    I'm shocked this isn't a movie yet. The premise alone is suspenseful. Dystopians are me and this one is now on my TBR. Great pick!

    Thanks for stopping by!

    I'm slowly coming around to the dystopian drama, although I've definitely been disappointed with a few I've read. I think I'll wait to see reviews of this before deciding to read it or not, but it definitely has potential!

    Thanks for stopping by my WoW!
