Waiting on Wednesday: Across the Universe

This is a weekly meme hosted by Jill from Breaking the Spine. "Waiting on Wednesday" spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.


Across the Universe by Beth Revis
Pub. Date: January 11, 2010



Goodreads says, "Seventeen-year-old Amy joins her parents as frozen cargo aboard the vast spaceship Godspeed and expects to awaken on a new planet, three hundred years in the future. Never could she have known that her frozen slumber would come to an end fifty years too soon and that she would be thrust into the brave new world of a spaceship that lives by its own rules.  Amy quickly realizes that her awakening was no mere computer malfunction. Someone—one of the few thousand inhabitants of the spaceship—tried to kill her. And if Amy doesn’t do something soon, her parents will be next.  Now, Amy must race to unlock Godspeed’s hidden secrets. But out of her list of murder suspects, there’s only one who matters: Elder, the future leader of the ship and the love she could never have seen coming."

*I've been reading more and more Sci-Fi lately and here is yet another example of a Sci-Fi novel that sounds so promising. A lot of the early reviews have been fantastic! Needless to say, I am absolutely looking forward to this one!

  4. I have been trying to broaden my reading experiences this year, and sci-fi is one the categories that I usually don't read, but have tried a few this year, and was pleasantly surprised.
    Hope you enjoy this one :)
