Admittedly, I would've rather had my first (well, second) post be an actual review, but I can't review any books until I actually finish reading them, so please be patient with me. In the meantime, I leave you this.
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by Breaking the Spine to highlight some upcoming releases that we're impatiently tapping our feet for. It's a great way to to keep track of some of the most anticipated releases amongst other book bloggers and a new way to discover books yourself.
At the moment, the book I'm most excited for is:

Rapunzel’s tower is a satellite. She can’t let down her hair—or her guard.When I first picked up Cinder, the first book in the series, I honestly didn't expect to love it as much as I did. It was a great, unique retelling of the Cinderella story with a pretty kick-ass (Asian!) protagonist and a male lead with his own developed storyline. Sorry Prince Charming, you don't have anything on Prince Kai! The sequel, Scarlet, was just as good as the first, and I expect Cress to be the same.
In this third book in the bestselling Lunar Chronicles series, Cinder and Captain Thorne are fugitives on the run, with Scarlet and Wolf in tow. Together, they’re plotting to overthrow Queen Levana and her army.
Their best hope lies with Cress, who has been trapped on a satellite since childhood with only her netscreens as company. All that screen time has made Cress an excellent hacker—unfortunately, she’s just received orders from Levana to track down Cinder and her handsome accomplice.
When a daring rescue goes awry, the group is separated. Cress finally has her freedom, but it comes at a high price. Meanwhile, Queen Levana will let nothing stop her marriage to Emperor Kai. Cress, Scarlet, and Cinder may not have signed up to save the world, but they may be the only ones who can.
