Title: One Moment by Kristina McBrideWant? Add to your Goodreads shelf!
Release Date: June 26th 2012
Published by: EgmontUSA
Summary (from Goodreads):
This was supposed to be the best summer of Maggie’s life. Now it's the one she'd do anything to forget.
Maggie Reynolds remembers hanging out at the gorge with her closest friends after a blowout party the night before. She remembers climbing the trail hand in hand with her perfect boyfriend, Joey. She remembers that last kiss, soft, lingering, and meant to reassure her. So why can’t she remember what happened in the moment before they were supposed to dive? Why was she left cowering at the top of the cliff, while Joey floated in the water below – dead?
As Maggie’s memories return in snatches, nothing seems to make sense. Why was Joey acting so strangely at the party? Where did he go after taking her home? And if Joey was keeping these secrets, what else was he hiding?
Why I'm waiting for One Moment:
This sounds scary and mysterious at the same time. I've always been a fan of books that will keep you guessing to the end, and this one sounds just like that. And that is one gorgeous cover. I love the greenish hues.
Title: Revived by Cat PatrickWant? Add to your Goodreads shelf!
Release Date: May 8th 2012
Published by: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Summary (from Goodreads):
As a little girl, Daisy Appleby was killed in a school bus crash. Moments after the accident, she was brought back to life.
A secret government agency has developed a drug called Revive that can bring people back from the dead, and Daisy Appleby, a test subject, has been Revived five times in fifteen years. Daisy takes extraordinary risks, knowing that she can beat death, but each new death also means a new name, a new city, and a new life. When she meets Matt McKean, Daisy begins to question the moral implications of Revive, and as she discovers the agency’s true goals, she realizes she’s at the center of something much larger — and more sinister — than she ever imagined.
Why I'm waiting for Revived:
I loved Cat's debut novel, Forgotten and she's in my automatic to-read list! Revived sounds great! Imagine if we have a drug like that now. Good alternative for zombies, huh? Or not? If you can be revived using a drug, what would you do? Sounds like another read which will make the readers think!
