{Waiting on Wednesday} #38 Requiem by Lauren Oliver

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine.

This week I'm waiting on.....

Requiem
Series: Delirium #3
Author: Lauren Oliver
Release Date: March 5, 2013
by, HarperTeen
They have tried to squeeze us out, to stamp us into the past.  

But we are still here.  And there are more of us every day.  

Now an active member of the resistance, Lena has been transformed. The nascent rebellion that was under way in Pandemonium has ignited into an all-out revolution in Requiem, and Lena is at the center of the fight.

After rescuing Julian from a death sentence, Lena and her friends fled to the Wilds. But the Wilds are no longer a safe haven—pockets of rebellion have opened throughout the country, and the government cannot deny the existence of Invalids. Regulators now infiltrate the borderlands to stamp out the rebels, and as Lena navigates the increasingly dangerous terrain, her best friend, Hana, lives a safe, loveless life in Portland as the fiancée of the young mayor.  

Maybe we are driven crazy by our feelings.  

Maybe love is a disease, and we would be better off without it.  But we have chosen a different road.

And in the end, that is the point of escaping the cure: We are free to choose.  

We are even free to choose the wrong thing.  Requiem is told from both Lena’s and Hana’s points of view. 

The two girls live side by side in a world that divides them until, at last, their stories converge.{Goodreads}
  First off, yes you guys I know I'm slacking but I am trying. This is me trying. It has been what?? Since December 18 (I checked) since my last Waiting on Wednesday post. I know. Its terrible but I am really REALLY trying to be better. I have read MANY books and so there should be a heck of a lot of more reviews coming. Then there are more author appearances and giveaways to go with. I am also trying to be more involved. Hopefully more commenting back and go find me on twitter! I also like chatting on there! :D Anyways.....

  Oh my holy freaking cheese balls!!!!!!!!!!!! Words can NOT express how terribly excited and scared I am for this book's release day...and its only a few days away!!!! Excited?? YES!!! If you have not read the Delirium trilogy you are freaking LOCO! And need to read it like right now. You are missing out on one of the best series to ever entered this world. No joke. It is my second favorite series you guys. Yes, number two! It is in the book shelf "books-I-need-in-order-to-breathe". Its true. I need these books to breathe. These are the books I would keep with me throughout my life and read them every single day if I could. They are just pure genius and amazing-ness.

  Scared?? SO FRIGHTENINGLY SCARED!!!!!!! I don't know what's going to happen and I know for sure this book will be the death of me. I can see myself just lying down and dying after the last word. Alex or Julian? I am scared one of them will die you guys. I need it to be Alex to be the happily ever after. I don't want it to be anyone else. It can't be. The ending of Pandemonium was insane and the worst cliff-hanger you will ever read. It tore out my heart and shattered it to millions of pieces.

  So in case you haven't gotten the hint....this is one of my most anticipated books of the 2013 year. It may just be the MOST anticipated book for me this year. Again, if you haven't read it....do yourself the favor and start it then come back and thank me k? ;D


What about you?
  What are you waiting on this week?

  Have a great day!! Happy Wednesdays!!
