Waiting on Wednesday

Whoa. Have you guys seen the cover for Insurgent? It just came across my blog feed and it is really spectacular (I think). I thought I would do a little Waiting on Wednesday for Insurgent this week...

the premise: It's the sequel to Divergent which was a really good read. In the Divergent universe, people are divided into groups based on values. Tris, the main character, finds out she doesn't fall into any one group. She's Divergent. People who are Divergent are seen as dangerous by the people in charge because they go against the common thought that everyone belongs in one group.

Insurgent picks up where Divergent left off. I'm hoping there will be more action, a lot more world-building (my only complaint about Divergent was that we only really saw one city. I'm curious about the rest of the world), and more romance.

why I'm dying to read it: Without giving too much away, when Divergent ended, the world was sort of turned upside down. I'm really interested to see what Roth does with her world now and to see if she can keep up the fast pace.

how long I have to wait: Approximately forever. (May!) This one should be in the catalogue around March so keep your eyes peeled then (I'm sure I'll remind you).

while you're waiting check out: Definitely pick up Divergent by the same author. If you liked Divergent, you might also like Matched by Ally Condie which is also a futuristic type book as well. If you haven't got your hands on Hunger Games yet, Divergent has been compared to it as well.
