Synopsis: Sixteen-year-old Laurel's world changes instantly when her parents and brother are killed in a terrible car accident. Behind the wheel is the father of her bad-boy neighbor, David Kaufman, whose mother is also killed. In the aftermath of the tragedy, Laurel navigates a new reality in which she and her best friend grow apart, boys may or may not be approaching her out of pity, overpowering memories lurk everywhere, and Mr. Kaufman is comatose but still very much alive. Through it all, there is David, who swoops in and out of Laurel's life and to whom she finds herself attracted against her better judgment. She will forever be connected to him by their mutual loss, a connection that will change them both in unexpected ways.
First off, I love the covers of all there of these! I've heard great things about all three, and I loved the first two books in the Théâtre Illuminata series. I can't wait to read all three! What are your thoughts on the books picked for this weeks WoW?

I am so waiting for Tris and Izzie. I only stumbled across this tale a couple of years ago on a movie channel somewhere and fell in love with the story. I understand this one isn't real deep but still, I love the story! And the Theatre Illuminata So Silver Bright- I really want to read those books! Soon! Come see my blog post from Egyptian writer Amira Aly.

These all look great, although I haven't read the earlier books in the series for So Silver Bright. The other two will definitely be on my list.
ReplyDeleteI really like the pretty cover for Tris & Izzie... it's too bad that the reviews I've read for the novel haven't been so great. I'm really looking forward to reading The Beginning of After as well! :)
ReplyDeleteI read - The Beginning of After
ReplyDeleteIt was just OK for me, I only gave it 3 stars, it didn't suck! But it could have been more.
