Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine that allows bloggers to share which books we are most anticipating.
This week I am
waiting on Paper and Fire by Rachel
Caine (07/05/16):
Description on
Goodreads:
In Ink
and Bone, New
York Times bestselling author Rachel Caine introduced a world
where knowledge is power, and power corrupts absolutely. Now, she continues the
story of those who dare to defy the Great Library—and rewrite history…
With an iron fist, The Great Library controls the knowledge of the world, ruthlessly stamping out all rebellion, forbidding the personal ownership of books in the name of the greater good.
Jess Brightwell has survived his introduction to the sinister, seductive world of the Library, but serving in its army is nothing like he envisioned. His life and the lives of those he cares for have been altered forever. His best friend is lost, and Morgan, the girl he loves, is locked away in the Iron Tower and doomed to a life apart.
Embarking on a mission to save one of their own, Jess and his band of allies make one wrong move and suddenly find themselves hunted by the Library’s deadly automata and forced to flee Alexandria, all the way to London.
But Jess’s home isn’t safe anymore. The Welsh army is coming, London is burning, and soon, Jess must choose between his friends, his family, or the Library willing to sacrifice anything and anyone in the search for ultimate control…

Why I’m Waiting:
Book one is probably one of the most under-rated/not hyped
enough YA books I’ve ever read that I think seriously needs more hype. It might
have been my favorite book of the year. It was so good, I’ve already convinced
3 coworkers they need to read it (one already has). I cannot get this sequel
fast enough. There is so much I need to know. And just the fact that the word, “fire,”
is in the title gives me goose bumps. I cannot wait.
What are you waiting on this week?
I still need to read book one for this series but it is on my tbr shelf :D This is the first time I've seen the cover for the sequel and I like how it matches with the first book but also has it's own thing going on^^ I hope that you'll love this one even more than the first! ♥

I really liked book 1 and can't wait to see what happens next. This is the second time I have seen this week. You should check out the UK cover - it's even better in my opinion.
