Waiting on Wednesday #1

Synopsis :
I am tired of being used, hurt, and cast aside.

Adelina Amouteru is a survivor of the blood fever. A decade ago, the deadly illness swept through her nation. Most of the infected perished, while many of the children who survived were left with strange markings. Adelina’s black hair turned silver, her lashes went pale, and now she has only a jagged scar where her left eye once was. Her cruel father believes she is a malfetto, an abomination, ruining their family’s good name and standing in the way of their fortune. But some of the fever’s survivors are rumored to possess more than just scars—they are believed to have mysterious and powerful gifts, and though their identities remain secret, they have come to be called the Young Elites.

Teren Santoro works for the king. As Leader of the Inquisition Axis, it is his job to seek out the Young Elites, to destroy them before they destroy the nation. He believes the Young Elites to be dangerous and vengeful, but it’s Teren who may possess the darkest secret of all.

Enzo Valenciano is a member of the Dagger Society. This secret sect of Young Elites seeks out others like them before the Inquisition Axis can. But when the Daggers find Adelina, they discover someone with powers like they’ve never seen.

Adelina wants to believe Enzo is on her side, and that Teren is the true enemy. But the lives of these three will collide in unexpected ways, as each fights a very different and personal battle. But of one thing they are all certain: Adelina has abilities that shouldn’t belong in this world. A vengeful blackness in her heart. And a desire to destroy all who dare to cross her.

It is my turn to use. My turn to hurt.

Yes guys my first Waiting on Wednesday.  I actually wrote this all Tuesday last night but it didn't save unfortunately. So here I am at school typing this.

The Young Elites by Marie Lu is a (I believe this is the right term to use) high fantasy YA book coming out on October 7th if im not wrong. I have heard really great things about Marie Lu specially because of the legend trilogy. Which I haven't even read yet because well you know there's that thing when you have no money. And then you forget about the book and stuff.

A lot of people like Marie Lu because of her writing style as well. I hope I get to like her as well just like everyone has.

I dont know that much about this book but thats how I like to read books, without knowing much about them. I think thats how you enjoy it even more.
This is my first high fantasy book. Because well I've never read any book in that genre before. Im just scared that the first one I read will be bad for me and that I'll end up being put off on that genre.

I found out about this book thanks to Reagan from Peruseproject on YouTube and I got excited about it because well Reagan can make you excited about almost anything.  I also saw that Jesse (Jessethereader) was really excited about it in his last book haul.
This is what I do the whole day I see people talking about books and then I want them.

I have a lot of high expectations for this book and I hope that it will be great. So go get this book as soon as it comes out!

Till next time and Happy reading!  :)
