Waiting on Wednesday: A Million Suns by Beth Revis

Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine and is meant to showcase upcoming books that you can't wait to read.

My anxiously awaited title this week is:

A Million Suns by Beth Revis
Expected Publication Date: January 10, 2012
Publisher: Razorbill
Genre: Science Fiction/Dystopia
Audience: Young Adult

From Goodreads:

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 am generally not a huge fan of science fiction but Beth Revis wrote such a vivid, intriguing world onboard the Godspeed that now I am waiting with bated breath to see what happens next. I loved that she ended Across the Universe with a satisfying sense of closure, but set up the story for this next book.

  3. I thought the loss of hope and faith was so overwhelming in the first book. Hope it looks up in the next. <a href="http://fangswandsandfairydust.com”)> Fangs, Wands and Fairy Dust</a>
