Waiting on Wednesday - The Mockingbirds By: Daisy Whitney (30)

"Waiting On" Wednesday is an event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. The purpose of this weekly event is to spotlight a soon-to-be-released book that you are very much anticipating. "Waiting On" Wednesday will also give bloggers an opportunity to share ideas for our TBR lists.



Title: The Mockingbirds
Author: Daisy Whitney
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, 352 Pages (November 2nd 2010)
Preorder here: Amazon, Borders, Barns and Noble, The Book Depository

Synopsis: Some schools have honor codes.

Others have handbooks.

Themis Academy has the Mockingbirds.

Themis Academy is a quiet boarding school with an exceptional student body that the administration trusts to always behave the honorable way--the Themis Way. So when Alex is date raped during her junior year, she has two options: stay silent and hope someone helps her, or enlist the Mockingbirds--a secret society of students dedicated to righting the wrongs of their fellow peers.

The amazing sounding books just keep coming - here's another to look forward to. The idea of a boarding school with a secret society to 'police' their fellow peers sounds like a must read to me. Let me know what you guys think of this one.

    I think the cover of this one is blue now... isn't it cool how they took a cover of To Kill a Mockingbird and tweaked it for this one?

My Ratings

When I review I rate from 1 to 5 stars, 5 being the highest rating. I review based on many different things from the writing, to the story - to the characters and how I can relate to them or how they are developed. I also review based on if an author has worked their magic and was able to draw me into a story so deeply that I don't want to put the book down. If you would like me to review a book, please contact me or view my Contact Information and Review Policy for further details.

5 Stars - I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!
4 Stars - I Really liked/Loved it.
3 Stars - I liked it/Was pretty good.
2 Stars - It was, eh okay.
1 Star - It just wasn't for me.
