Waiting on Wednesday : Scarlet by Marissa Meyer

Waiting on Wednesday is a meme is hosted at Breaking the Spine and spotlights upcoming releases that are eagerly anticipated. Go check out their post to add your blog to the linky!

Oh, and by eagerly anticipated, I meant these books make you barely restrain yourself from stalking the author. 

Anywho, this week's pre-publication "can't wait to read" selection is - 




SCARLET (The Lunar Chronicles #2)

 Author - Marissa Meyer
Release Date - February 2013

 From Goodreads - 

Cinder returns in the second thrilling installment of the New York Times-bestselling Lunar Chronicles. She’s trying to break out of prison—even though if she succeeds, she’ll be the Commonwealth’s most wanted fugitive. Halfway around the world, Scarlet Benoit’s grandmother is missing. It turns out there are many things Scarlet doesn’t know about her grandmother and the grave danger she has lived in her whole life. When Scarlet encounters Wolf, a street fighter who may have information as to her grandmother’s whereabouts, she has no choice but to trust him, though he clearly has a few dark secrets of his own. As Scarlet and Wolf work to unravel one mystery, they find another when they cross paths with Cinder. Together, they must stay one step ahead of the vicious Lunar Queen who will do anything to make Prince Kai her husband, her king, her prisoner.
Why it makes it to the wishlist - 
  • Because Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles #1) has left you on tenterhooks
  • Because you miss the defiant Prince Kai and the sadistic Lunar Queen
  • Because you want to read about a Cyborg's Jail Break. You really really do
  • Because any street fighter named Wolf is a guy you want to get to know

Chapter Teaser Here - Scarlet Chapter One

  14. I'm probably one of the tiny minority in the blogging world who still haven't read Cinder >.< But if I had, I'm sure I'd also be pining for a sequel! And jail break. Jail break is alsways fine with me :P (in books)

  28. I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS ONE TOO! (hence the caps) I cannot wait! It seems so far away! I have to agree that a book with a street fighter named Wolf sounds awesome. And Cinder escaping from prison and seeing Prince Kai again? I want to read about that! Great pick!

    Btw, I see you're reading Defiance. Hope you're enjoying it as much as I did!

    ReplyDelete

  29. Cinder is waiting ever so patiently on my Kindle (not) to be read. If I hurry, maybe I'll get it read before Scarlet comes out! I usually get the first book in a series read right before book 2 comes out anyway. :) What a gorgeous cover, I kind of like it more than Cinder's.

    Excellent pick!
