Waiting on Wednesday

"Waiting on Wednesday" is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. It lets us all gush about what soon-to-be released books we are jumping-up-and-down excited for.


Revived
by Cat Patrick
Link
hitting shelves May 8, 2012 from Little, Brown Books for Young Readers

description: 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.

My thoughts: Cat Patrick really impressed me with Forgotten, so I'm definitely looking forward to her second novel! Love this cover, it's not like anything else I've seen lately. Kind of makes me think of her looking out from a body bag, so it fits the story. Can't wait to read this!
