Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme held by Jill from Breaking the Spine that showcases upcoming releases that we can't wait to claim as our own & aren't afraid to tell that to the world!
The much anticipated second book in the enthralling Black City series
Engaged to be married, Ash and Natalie are just starting to build a life together, when things in the United Sentry States go from bad to worse. Ash and Natalie find themselves at the center of the turmoil when dictator Purian Rose threatens Natalie’s life unless Ash votes in favor of Rose’s law—a law that will send Darklings and other dissenters to a deadly concentration camp known as the Tenth.
Ash can’t bring himself to trade Natalie’s life for those of millions of Darklings. The only way to save everyone is to escape Black City and find the Ora, a powerful weapon that could take down Purian Rose for good. But fleeing the city and finding this weapon is easier said than done, if it even exists, and becomes a quest that could tear Ash and Natalie apart, even pushing them into the arms of others.
Coming Soon in June 2013.

I know this seems a bit too early to be lusting for a book. But I couldn't care less.
The first thing I did yesterday when my exams ended was to finish reading Black City in one sitting. And oh my oh my good Lord. It was fantastic in mind-blowing proportions.
And like all those who start reading series like Cinder whose books are spaced out a year apart, I'm down with the Sequel Symptom. Badly.
Because I want to read Phoenix so bad.
God knows how I'll review Black City, I really really adored it. And I guess the books that are the best are the hardest to review :/
But I'm getting off-topic. So, as I was saying, I am waiting waiting waiting for Phoenix.
Psst... This book is on fire!
I'm still waiting to read Black City, though I have a feeling I will love it! :)
