Wishlist Wednesday #10

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.



Aside from the drool-worthy cover, I also want this book because I'm seeing so many fabulous reviews of it lately. It looks like an interesting and original dystopian story with lies and deceptions, which is set in a bubble underwater. 


Renegade by J.A Souders
Since the age of three, sixteen-year-old Evelyn Winters has been trained to be Daughter of the People in the underwater utopia known as Elysium. Selected from hundreds of children for her ideal genes, all her life she’s thought that everything was perfect; her world. Her people. The Law.

But when Gavin Hunter, a Surface Dweller, accidentally stumbles into their secluded little world, she’s forced to come to a startling realization: everything she knows is a lie. 

Her memories have been altered. 

Her mind and body aren't under her own control. 

And the person she knows as Mother is a monster.

Together with Gavin she plans her escape, only to learn that her own mind is a ticking time bomb... and Mother has one last secret that will destroy them all.


Have you read it yet? What did you think?
Thanks for stopping by!

  6. That is indeed a lovely cover and what an original spin on the Little Mermaid tale. I think I’m jealous of the author’s brain for coming up with that one. (I’m jealous of a lot of author’s brains.) Thanks for stopping by my blog and I definitely think you should read Charmed Life when you get a chance. Diana Wynne Jones is an author not to be missed and her Chrestomanci series is very good.
