Waiting on Wednesday(10): Insurgent by Veronica Roth




For those of you who don't know "Waiting On" Wednesday is an event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. The purpose is to let others know which book you are anticipating and can't wait till it comes out to read it.

  • Pub. Date: May 1, 2012
  • Publisher: HarperCollins Children's Books
  • Format: Hardcover , 496pp

    • Cover ImageOne choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.
    Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable—and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.
    New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth's much-anticipated second book of the dystopian Divergent series is another intoxicating thrill ride of a story, rich with hallmark twists, heartbreaks, romance, and powerful insights about human nature.


    Links to Check it out/Preorder:

    The cover of this book just was revealed and I am so excited for it to come out. The cover looks amazing and it totally follows the theme of the first book. Divergent was such an awesome book and ended on such a cliffhanger that I can not wait for more. If you haven't read Divergent yet now is the time to do so. It was such a fantastic read and Veronica Roth is such a great writer that I just know that her sequel will be awesome. =] Are you as excited as I am? Let me know what in the comments and leave a link to what you are waiting for this wednesday. =]

    Thanks for visiting and Happy Reading.

      Insurgent is popping up all over the place for this week's WoW! Love the cover reveal and I'm just as excited for its release! Divergent was one of my favorite 2011 books and it's great that Veronica Roth is a debut author. I'm expecting great things from this series and I know I won't be disappointed. Great choice!
