Waiting on Wednesday (#8)


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine,
which spotlights upcoming books we can't wait to read.


My WoW for this week is:

Alice in Zombieland by Gena Showalter


Goodreads Summary:
She won’t rest until she’s sent every walking corpse back to its grave. Forever.

Had anyone told Alice Bell that her entire life would change course between one heartbeat and the next, she would have laughed. From blissful to tragic, innocent to ruined? Please. But that’s all it took. One heartbeat. A blink, a breath, a second, and everything she knew and loved was gone.

Her father was right. The monsters are real….

To avenge her family, Ali must learn to fight the undead. To survive, she must learn to trust the baddest of the bad boys, Cole Holland. But Cole has secrets of his own, and if Ali isn’t careful, those secrets might just prove to be more dangerous than the zombies….


I wish I could go back and do a thousand things differently.
I'd tell my sister no.
I'd never beg my mother to talk to my dad.
I'd zip my lips and swallow those hateful words.
Or, barring all of that, I'd hug my sister, my mom and my dad one last time.
I'd tell them I love them.
I wish... Yeah, I wish.

My thoughts:
The title and the cover is what sold me on this book. I just love the cover and the detailing around the edges. Plus the summary sounds really intriguing. I love zombie books and the fact that it's a retelling of Alice in Wonderland is a bonus! So yeah I can't wait for this book :)

Expected Release Date: September 25th 2012


What book are you waiting for?

  1. Wonderful choice, Yvonne :) I've seen Alice In Zombieland around earlier but haven't added it to my wishlist. Now I have! And that reminds me that I have yet to read the original story, can you believe that?
