ERCHOMAI, SEBASTIAN HAD SAID. I am coming.

Darkness returns to the Shadowhunter world. As their society falls apart around them, Clary, Jace, Simon and their friends must band together to fight the greatest evil the Nephilim have ever faced: Clary’s own brother. Nothing in the world can defeat him — must they journey to another world to find the chance? Lives will be lost, love sacrificed, and the whole world changed in the sixth and last installment of the Mortal Instruments series!

Why am I Waiting? I really like this series, and I really need to know what happens. With all the tweets and interviews that Cassandra has done, I am so scared. With the amount of people that are going to die. 2 weddings going to happen. I just cannot wait. I hope it is going to be amazing.

This Week my Waiting on Wednesday is Panic by Lauren Oliver

Synopsis

Panic began as so many things do in Carp, a dead-end town of 12,000 people in the middle of nowhere: because it was summer, and there was nothing else to do.

Heather never thought she would compete in Panic, a legendary game played by graduating seniors, where the stakes are high and the payoff is even higher. She’d never thought of herself as fearless, the kind of person who would fight to stand out. But when she finds something, and someone, to fight for, she will discover that she is braver than she ever thought.

Dodge has never been afraid of Panic. His secret will fuel him, and get him all the way through the game, he’s sure of it. But what he doesn’t know is that he’s not the only one with a secret. Everyone has something to play for.

For Heather and Dodge, the game will bring new alliances, unexpected revelations, and the possibility of first love for each of them—and the knowledge that sometimes the very things we fear are those we need the most.

Why am I waiting? This sounds soo good and really interesting. It sounds intriguing. I have a love hate relationship with Lauren Oliver, I loved Delirium, then like Pandemonium and then I found out what happened in Requiem and just could not read them. Put I am really liking this. it sounds awesome and I haven’t read much Sci-fi so it will also give me a chance to get into that genre as well.

Synopsis

Sophie Winters nearly died. Twice.

The first time, she’s fourteen, and escapes a near-fatal car accident with scars, a bum leg, and an addiction to Oxy that’ll take years to kick.

The second time, she’s seventeen, and it’s no accident. Sophie and her best friend Mina are confronted by a masked man in the woods. Sophie survives, but Mina is not so lucky. When the cops deem Mina’s murder a drug deal gone wrong, casting partial blame on Sophie, no one will believe the truth: Sophie has been clean for months, and it was Mina who led her into the woods that night for a meeting shrouded in mystery.

After a forced stint in rehab, Sophie returns home to a chilly new reality. Mina’s brother won’t speak to her, her parents fear she’ll relapse, old friends have become enemies, and Sophie has to learn how to live without her other half. To make matters worse, no one is looking in the right places and Sophie must search for Mina’s murderer on her own. But with every step, Sophie comes closer to revealing all: about herself, about Mina and about the secret they shared

Why am I waiting for it? Firstly the c0ver is gorgeous!! Both this cover and the US cover. I don’t know which I like best. I am really liking, Mystery Thriller at the moment so that element immediately caught my eye. Also the fact that it’s contemporary and I am trying to read of it more this year is pretty awesome as well. It comes out in a few months so I don’t have to wait to long.
