On My Wishlist #1 (10/15/11)

On My Wishlist is a fun weekly event hosted by Book Chick City and runs every Saturday. It's where you list all the books you desperately want but haven't actually bought yet. They can be old, new or forthcoming. It's also an event that you can join in with too - Mr Linky is always at the ready for you to link your own 'On My Wishlist' post. Want to know more?

I just found this meme and it's so perfect for me! When is there ever a book I want but haven't bought yet?


MY YA WISHLIST 
(10/15/11)


This Dark Endeavor: The Apprenticeship of Victor Frankenstein 
by Kenneth Oppel

It's funny I have this on my wishlist, since I've already purchased this book, but am STILL waiting for it to arrive at my house.... Yeah, it's taking its time getting here and I'm getting impatient. I can't wait to read this! I bought it when I was practically down to my last dime because I found a used copy cheaper than I could anywhere else, so I had to get it before it was too late. (Just get here already!)


Darker Still (Magic Most Foul, #1)
by Leanna Renee Hieber

I read a bit of the beginning of this, already, over on the author's blog, and it blew me away! I cannot wait to tear into this gem when it comes out next month. It is another Victorian read, although set in the U.S., I believe. Love reading Victorians...




Across the Universe (Across the Universe, #1)
by Beth Revis

This isn't a fantasy novel, but sci-fi is close enough for just this one time. I've already read this book and I love it. But, I borrowed it from the library, so I want to buy it this time. I really hate the hardcover book cover, so I'm going to get the paperback when it comes out next month. This new cover is gorgeous.


What's on YOUR wishlists, people of the interwebz?

  7. Across The Universe is AMAZING! I loved it. Can't wait for A Million Suns, the sequel. Also, I think you were right about us reading the same things! Darker Still sounds wonderful, doesn't it?

  11. This Dark Endeavor looks really interesting; I'll be watching for your review! Will be adding Across the Universe to my TBR, too - I keep hearing that it's well worth the time.
