Waiting on Wednesday # 6

Wednesday, December 1, 2010

 "Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Future Imperfect by K. Ryer Breese  - Release Date 26th April, 2011 -Ade Patience can see the future. Pretty cool, right? But there's one small problem. During his latest vision, he sees himself murdering a classmate from his high school.

When 17-year-old Ade Patience knocks himself unconscious, he can see the future. However, he's also addicted to the high he gets when he breaks the laws of physics. And while he's seen things he's wanted to change, Ade knows The Rule: You can't change the future, no matter how hard you try.

His memory is failing, his grades are in a death spiral, and both Ade's best friend and his shrink are begging him to stop before he kills himself. Luckily, the stunning Vauxhall Rodolfo recently transferred to his school and, just like Ade saw in a vision two years previously, they're destined to fall in love. It's just the Ade needs to kick his habit. Only... things are a bet more complicated than that. Vauxhall has a powerful addiction of her own. And after a vision in which Ade sees himself murdering someone, he realizes he must break the one rule he's been told he can't.

Ade and Vauxhall must overcome their addictions and embrace their love for each other in order to do the impossible: change the future.

Why? I love books from a male point of view.  I thinking being able to see the future would be scary so I think it might be a bit of pulse pounding reading for me.  Early reviews have said it is 'dark, funny and unpredictibale'.  And the cover I love it!

What are you waiting for?

I don't often read too many books from a male perspective, but I really should step out of my comfort zone. I'm adding this to my list now! Thanks, Nic! :)
