Waiting on Wednesday (158)

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week I am super excited for Defy Me by Tahereh Mafi. I'm so excited that I can't adequately put it into words. First, I want to note that the cover is gorgeous! But then again, all the covers in this series are. I love how the eyelashes look like metal shards. I can't wait to see Juliette and Warner together again. Especially given all the new information we learned about Juliette at the end of Restore Me. I'm 99% sure I've preordered it, and I know I'll dive in the second I get it! I seriously cannot wait to get my hands on this book.

Synopsis:

Will Juliette’s broken heart make her vulnerable to the strengthening darkness within her?

Juliette’s short tenure as the supreme commander of North America has been an utter disaster. When the children of the other world leaders show up on her doorstep, she wants nothing more than to turn to Warner for support and guidance. But he shatters her heart when he reveals that he’s been keeping secrets about her family and her identity from her—secrets that change everything.

Juliette is devastated, and the darkness that’s always dwelled within her threatens to consume her. An explosive encounter with unexpected visitors might be enough to push her over the edge.

Release: April 2, 2019
