Waiting on Wednesday

 

 "Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, originally started by Jill at Breaking the Spine , that highlights upcoming book releases everyone is waiting on...hence the title. This week's pick is The One by Kiera Cass. Here's the synopsis:

The Selection changed the lives of thirty-five girls forever. And now, the time has come for one winner to be chosen.

America never dreamed she would find herself anywhere close to the crown—or to Prince Maxon's heart. But as the competition approaches its end and the threats outside the palace walls grow more vicious, America realizes just how much she stands to lose—and how hard she'll have to fight for the future she wants.

From the very first page of The Selection, this #1 New York Times bestselling series has captured readers' hearts and swept them away on a captivating journey... Now, in The One, Kiera Cass delivers a satisfying and unforgettable conclusion that will keep readers sighing over this electrifying fairy-tale long after the final page is turned.

 

I remember a time when readers were asked to speculate on what colour dress America would wear on the cover of the final book and my immediate answer was white, as in a wedding dress.  Well, I think I might be right and just like all the other books in this series, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the cover.  I'm a massive fan of this series and when I tell you I cannot wait to get my hands on this book, I'm totally not joking.  I would drop everything to read this as I'm so invested in the characters and I NEED to know what happens.  I can't call this one so I'm desperate to have this book in my hands but we've got a bit of a wait until publication I'm afraid and I don't know how I'm going to hold out. 

The One is published on 6th May, 2013 in the US and 5th June, 2013 in the UK.
