WOW #77




I'm waiting on

 These Broken Stars (These Broken Stars, #1)

These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman & Megan Spooner
Release Date December 10th 2013


It's a night like any other on board the Icarus. Then, catastrophe strikes: the massive luxury spaceliner is yanked out of hyperspace and plummets into the nearest planet. Lilac LaRoux and Tarver Merendsen survive. And they seem to be alone.

Lilac is the daughter of the richest man in the universe. Tarver comes from nothing, a young war hero who learned long ago that girls like Lilac are more trouble than they’re worth. But with only each other to rely on, Lilac and Tarver must work together, making a tortuous journey across the eerie, deserted terrain to seek help.

Then, against all odds, Lilac and Tarver find a strange blessing in the tragedy that has thrown them into each other’s arms. Without the hope of a future together in their own world, they begin to wonder—would they be better off staying here forever?

Everything changes when they uncover the truth behind the chilling whispers that haunt their every step. Lilac and Tarver may find a way off this planet. But they won’t be the same people who landed on it.

The first in a sweeping science fiction trilogy, These Broken Stars is a timeless love story about hope and survival in the face of unthinkable odds.

Why I'm Waiting?
Gorgeous cover! But I love books about space so I've been excited about this once since before the cover was even revealed! Crash landing on a planet?! Scary! And I just won a pre-order of this in the Cover Madness Giveaway Hop so I am even more excited for December to come.

    YAY that you got a pre-order! I actually got an ARC of this one from Disney in May. I still haven't read it - I'm stuck in my September releases! There are SOOOOO many September releases that I have to get through. And October, too. Not that many November, so after that, These Broken Stars will be reviewed by Alyssa! :D
