Waiting On Wednesday #5
4 January, 2012
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking The Spine where you can spotlight a book you’re giddy with excitement to read so other people can be giddy with excitement too :)
Now, I do this a little differently! As this is a film and book blog, I basically just list a book AND a film that I am waiting for!
Author: Tara Hudson
Release Date: Expected June 5th 2012
Publisher: Harper Collins Children’s Book
Goodreads: Add it
Summary: (Goodreads)
Amelia—still caught between life and death—must fight for every moment of her relationship with the human boy Joshua. They can hardly even kiss without Amelia accidentally dematerializing. Looking for answers, they go to visit some of Joshua’s Seer relatives in New Orleans. But even in a city so famously steeped in the supernatural, Amelia ends up with more questions than answers…and becomes increasingly convinced that she and Joshua can never have a future together.Wandering through the French Quarter, Amelia meets other in-between ghosts, and begins to seriously consider joining them. And then she meets Gabrielle. Somehow, against impossible odds, Gaby has found a way to live a sort of half-life…a half-life for which Amelia would pay any price. Torn between two worlds, Amelia must choose carefully, before the evil spirits of the netherworld choose for her.
Why?: I absolutely loved Hereafter, the first in this series and I can not wait until the next installment of this book! Plus, just look at the cover and that synopsis! It all looks so amazing, doesn’t it? I honestly cannot wait to see what Tara Hudson has in store for us in this next book!

Title: Underworld: Awakening
Release Date: 20th January 2012
Directors: Måns Mårlind, Björn Stein
Why?: Because so far I have loved every other Underworld film and I can imagine that I will feel the same way about this one! I cannot wait for its release and while it has probably stretched the franchise as far as it can go, I don’t care. This is one that I am excited to wait for!
This week, both of the things I’m waiting on are sequels but isn’t that just how these things go? Hehe!
what are you waiting on?

So excited to read Arise! The cover is sooooo pretty and I’m eager to see where the story is headed next <3 I have yet to watched any of the previous Underworld movies, but clearly I need to, right? MUST GET ON THOSE SOON!

I’m dying for Arise. The cover is so pretty and Joshua is so sweet. I just hope they can find their HEA because it so rarely happens in ghost books.
My WOW

I have Hereafter waiting to be read on my shelf. I might just have to read it before this one comes out. And I am also excited for Underworld Awakening. Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier!
