WOW #53



I'm waiting on

Sky on Fire (Monument 14 #2)

 Sky On Fire (Monument 14 #2) by Emmy Laybourne
Expected Release Date May 28th 2013


The world hasn't ended...yet.

In this sequel to MONUMENT 14, the group of survivors, originally trapped together in a superstore by a series of escalating disasters, has split in two. Most of the kids are making a desperate run on their recently repaired school bus for the Denver airport where they hope to reunite with their parents, be evacuated to safety, and save their dying friend.

But the world outside is dark and filled with dangerous chemicals that turn people into bloodthirsty monsters, and not all the kids were willing to get on the bus. Left behind in a sanctuary that has already been disturbed once, the remaining kids try to rebuild the community they lost. But when the issues are life and death, love and hate, who can you really trust?

Why I Am Waiting?
I love disaster books especially when a bunch of crazy teens are trying to figure out how to work together and survive. Monument 14 was good and still left me with questions of what is going on in the world outside the superstore they were stuck inside. Can't wait to see what further disasters await!

    Haven't read the first book so I'm not waiting for this yet-will need to catch up on the disasters from book one first!

    It has a title!?! And cover art! I was unsure of Monument 14 when the tour rolled through my area, but just loved it when I read it a month ago. You've made my day.

    OOh interesting! I haven't heard of this one, but these end of the world books tend to freak me out! I don't like thinking of the world ending so soon yet, especially with my TBR pile nowhere near being completed!

    Here's my WoW

    Have a GREAT day!

    I still need to read the first book...thinking about grabbing the audio. I love disaster books, too. This series kinda reminds me of This is Not a Test, except without zombies. Which means I should definitely love it. :) Great pick! Thanks for sharing! Here's my WoW. Happy Wednesday! :D

    I love this cover!! I admit, I liked Monument 14, but was not a huge fan of it. I just felt very disconnected with the characters. I am still definitely going to read this one though. I'm a sucker for books like this!!

    I haven't read the first one but I really like this cover, very simple but to the point. I like disaster books but hate when only one person survives. Hope this isn't one of those...

    I love Emmy but I wasn't a big fan of Monument 13. I hope the second is better. The cover is awesome though.

    I didn't LOVE the first but it was because I wanted to see what the heck was going on outside so I think this sequel will be more for me!
