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: The Last Girl on Earth by Alexandra Blogier (1/23/2018):
Description on Goodreads:
Li has a father and a sister who love her. A best friend,
Mirabae, to share things with. She goes to school and hangs out at the beach
and carefully follows the rules. She has to. Everyone she knows--her family,
her teachers, her friends--is an alien. And she is the only human left on
Earth.
A secret that could end her life.
The Abdoloreans hijacked the planet sixteen years ago, destroying all human life. Li's human-sympathizer father took her in as a baby and has trained her to pass as one of them. The Abdoloreans appear human. But they don't think with human minds or feel with human hearts. And they have special abilities no human could ever have.
Fit in or die.
When Li meets Ryn, she's swept up in a relationship that could have disastrous consequences. How far will Li go to stay alive? Will she save herself--and in turn, the human race--or will she be the final witness to humanity's destruction?

Why I’m Waiting:
This sounds so cool! I love the idea of a YA main character
being the last human on Earth. I’ve read sci-fi where there’s only one human on
an alien planet. But to have only one human left on this planet? And needing to
fit in with the aliens that killed everyone else? This sounds epic.
What are you waiting on this week?
