On My Wishlist ~2~

On My Wishlist is a fun weekly event hosted by Book Chick City and runs every Saturday. It's where we list all the books we desperately want but haven't actually bought yet.


The Lying Game (The Lying Game 1) 
Sara Shepard
Published: December 7th 2010 by Harperteen

~I started to watch the TV series and wow it's amazing, I'm in love- I spent the whole two days watching it, pretty much non-stop. I actually didn't know the show was based on a book and after I found out I decided to check it out. Even though the show is obviously different I still want to read the book.~ 

Summery: 


I had a life anyone would kill for. Then someone did.

I may not remember much, but I know I led a charmed life. Even in death I’m getting something no one else does: an encore performance, thanks to Emma, the long-lost twin sister I never got to meet. Now, in order to figure out what happened to me, Emma needs to become me. But can she laugh at inside jokes with my best friends? Convince my boyfriend she’s the girl he fell in love with? Hug my parents good night like she’s their daughter? And can she keep up the charade even after she realizes my murderer is watching her every move?

Let the lying game begin.


So what's on your Wish list?

On My Wishlist ~1~

On My Wishlist is a fun weekly event hosted by Book Chick City and runs every Saturday. It's where we list all the books we desperately want but haven't actually bought yet.

Shatter me (Shatter me 1) 
Tahereh Mafi

~ I love the cover of it, and by all of the reviews on goodreads the book sounds soo good! Can't wait to get my hands on it!~ 




Summery: 

Juliette hasn't touched anyone in exactly 264 days.

The last time she did, it was an accident, but The Reestablishment locked her up for murder. No one knows why Juliette's touch is fatal. As long as she doesn't hurt anyone else, no one really cares. The world is too busy crumbling to pieces to pay attention to a 17-year-old girl. Diseases are destroying the population, food is hard to find, birds don't fly anymore, and the clouds are the wrong color.

The Reestablishment said their way was the only way to fix things, so they threw Juliette in a cell. Now so many people are dead that the survivors are whispering war-- and The Reestablishment has changed its mind. Maybe Juliette is more than a tortured soul stuffed into a poisonous body. Maybe she's exactly what they need right now.

Juliette has to make a choice: Be a weapon. Or be a warrior.




Thirteen Reasons Why- Jay Asher
Published: July 1st 2010

~ I really feel like reading a sad story where I can cry my eyes out, and this book looks like it might just do that~ 

Summery:

Clay Jensen returns home from school to find a mysterious box with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker—his classmate and crush—who committed suicide two weeks earlier.

On tape, Hannah explains that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Clay is one of them. If he listens, he’ll find out how he made the list.
