Wishlist Wednesday #42 - Alienated

Wishlist Wednesday is a weekly book blog hop hosted by Dani at Pen to Paper where we will post about a book that has been on our wishlist for some time, or just added, that we can't wait to get off the wishlist and onto our bookshelves.


This is another case of major cover lust. But alien exchange students? Talk about a mix of cultures! I'm definitely curious about this one and would like to know more about it- if anyone else has read it and  would recommend it?
I do really like the sound of this book though and it is firmly on my wishlist. 



Alienated  by Melissa Landers
Goodreads

Two years ago, the aliens made contact. Now Cara Sweeney is going to be sharing a bathroom with one of them. 

Handpicked to host the first-ever L’eihr exchange student, Cara thinks her future is set. Not only does she get a free ride to her dream college, she’ll have inside information about the mysterious L’eihrs that every journalist would kill for. Cara’s blog following is about to skyrocket.

Still, Cara isn’t sure what to think when she meets Aelyx. Humans and L’eihrs have nearly identical DNA, but cold, infuriatingly brilliant Aelyx couldn’t seem more alien. She’s certain about one thing, though: no human boy is this good-looking.

But when Cara's classmates get swept up by anti-L'eihr paranoia, Midtown High School suddenly isn't safe anymore. Threatening notes appear in Cara's locker, and a police officer has to escort her and Aelyx to class. 

Cara finds support in the last person she expected. She realizes that Aelyx isn’t just her only friend; she's fallen hard for him. But Aelyx has been hiding the truth about the purpose of his exchange, and its potentially deadly consequences. Soon Cara will be in for the fight of her life—not just for herself and the boy she loves, but for the future of her planet.

  1. I think Alienated is more or less aimed at young adults but it works perfectly well for adults who are immature too. I loved this book and I'll be 46 in a couple of months. Age doesn't matter when you have a story like this one. All you need is a desire to be entertained. Give Alienated a try. You'll be glad you did.
