Waiting on Wednesday is the awesome meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine to highlight exciting upcoming books. This week, I'm excited for:
A Million Suns
by Beth Revis
January 10, 2012
Godspeed was fueled by lies. Now it is ruled by chaos.
It's
been three months since Amy was unplugged. The life she always knew is
over. And everywhere she looks, she sees the walls of the spaceship
Godspeed. But there may just be hope: Elder has assumed leadership of
the ship. He's finally free to enact his vision - no more Phydus, no
more lies.
But when Elder discovers shocking news about the ship,
he and Amy race to discover the truth behind life on Godspeed. They
must work together to unlock a puzzle that was set in motion hundreds of
years earlier, unable to fight the romance that's growing between them
and the chaos that threatens to tear them apart.
In book two of
the Across the Universe trilogy, New York Times bestselling author Beth
Revis mesmerizes us again with a brilliantly crafted mystery filled with
action, suspense, romance, and deep philosophical questions. And this
time it all builds to one mind-bending conclusion: They have to get off
this ship.
I was completely disappointed the ending of Across the Universe But most of those concerns were related to it wrapping too quickly without any resolution, and now that I realise this is a trilogy, the concerns are almost totally gone. Which means now I'm free to be completely excited about the next book in the trilogy and more Elder and Amy! And I totally am. The entire set up is amazing, and I love all the care Beth Revis took in designing Godspeed.
Plus I totally adore books about giant spaceships. I don't know why, but it's a thing.
I haven't read the first on yet, but I have it waiting for me on my nook. I've heard great things about it, but I'm sad that you were disappointed by the ending. :( Anyhooooo, great choice this week! :)

My WoW :)
I think it's an ending that if I KNEW the book was first in a trilogy, it would have made more sense. But I thought it was a standalone, and I was oh-so-confused. You should read it! It's really good!
