"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
For this week, my pick is another dystopian! I picked The Program (The Program, #1) by Suzanne Young. This one looks just soo good, I can't wait to read it!
In Sloane’s world, true feelings are forbidden, teen suicide is an epidemic, and the only solution is The Program.
Sloane knows better than to cry in front of anyone. With suicide now an international epidemic, one outburst could land her in The Program, the only proven course of treatment. Sloane’s parents have already lost one child; Sloane knows they’ll do anything to keep her alive. She also knows that everyone who’s been through The Program returns as a blank slate. Because their depression is gone—but so are their memories.
Under constant surveillance at home and at school, Sloane puts on a brave face and keeps her feelings buried as deep as she can. The only person Sloane can be herself with is James. He’s promised to keep them both safe and out of treatment, and Sloane knows their love is strong enough to withstand anything. But despite the promises they made to each other, it’s getting harder to hide the truth. They are both growing weaker. Depression is setting in. And The Program is coming for them.
What's your pick for this week? Leave me a link, and I'll be sure to stop by and check it out!
I've got mixed feelings about this one - why are all of the teens so depressed? Is the government purposely adding something to the water to throw off their chemical balance, so they can be re-programmed? I just don't get why everyone's so depressed! I guess I'll have to read it to find out! Lol
ReplyDeleteMy WoW this week is The Eternity Cure by Julie Kagawa!
Yes, I know. It is kinda confussing, but that's why I'm so excited to read it and to see what is really going on.
DeleteThis one was one of my picks for the week as well. I hope they pull it off well but either way i love the yellow on the cover!
