This book doesn't come out in a LONG time, but I'm so SO excited for it I just can't hold it anymore. And its cover and description were recently revealed. Prepare yourself for this:
Courtney Summers, the Courtney Summers, author of the amazing titles: Some Girls Are, Fall for Anything and Cracked Up to Be,
IS GOING DYSTOPIAN MEETS ZOMBIES MEETS DEPRESSION SYNDROME!
I can't be anymore excited, so without further ado I present you:
It’s the end of the world. Six students have taken cover in Cortege High but shelter is little comfort when the dead outside won’t stop pounding on the doors. One bite is all it takes to kill a person and bring them back as a monstrous version of their former self. To Sloane Price, that doesn’t sound so bad. Six months ago, her world collapsed and since then, she’s failed to find a reason to keep going. Now seems like the perfect time to give up.
As Sloane eagerly waits for the barricades to fall, she’s forced to witness the apocalypse through the eyes of five people who actually want to live. But as the days crawl by, everyone’s motivations to survive begin to change in startling ways and soon the group’s fate is determined less and less by what’s happening outside and more and more by the unpredictable and violent bids for life–and death–inside.
When everything is gone, what do you hold on to?

I am going to totally nerd out here: HOT POTATOES I cannot WAIT for this!! Courtney Summers is such a phenomenal writer. And while I tend to stay away from zombie/apocolyptic, I will check this out.
ReplyDelete@Michelle Courtney is a real big fan of zombies so I'm excited to see what she can do writing about something she's so passionate about.
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with her writing <3
Sounds so good! Now I'm waiting on it!

Anything that starts with "It's the end of the world" in the blurb has me. This is definitely going to be added to my want list.
