Stacking the Shelves #54

Stacking the Shelves is a meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews in which we feature all the book goodness that we received, borrowed or purchased during the previous week. All links are to Goodreads.

Another busy week comes to an end!  B and C started camp this week (until classes start since my mom is gone) and I have to get used to getting kids ready in the morning.  I obviously have been spoiled this summer!  

Last Saturday the YADC group of bloggers  authors and book lovers of Virginia, DC and Maryland had our first get together!  We had so much fun! I'll see you guys at the National and Baltimore Book Festivals next month.

Waiting on Wednesday: Unremembered by Jessica Brody (Unremembered #1)

Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine in which we have the opportunity to let others know about books that we are eagerly waiting for.

Title: Unremembered by Jessica Brody 

Published by: Farrar, Straus & Giroux

Release date: March 5th, 2013

The only thing worse than forgetting her past... is remembering it.

When Freedom Airlines flight 121 went down over the Pacific Ocean, no one ever expected to find survivors. Which is why the sixteen-year-old girl discovered floating among the wreckage—alive—is making headlines across the globe.

Even more strange is that her body is miraculously unharmed and she has no memories of boarding the plane. She has no memories of her life before the crash. She has no memories period. No one knows how she survived. No one knows why she wasn’t on the passenger manifest. And no one can explain why her DNA and fingerprints can’t be found in a single database in the world.

Crippled by a world she doesn’t know, plagued by abilities she doesn’t understand, and haunted by a looming threat she can’t remember, Seraphina struggles to piece together her forgotten past and discover who she really is. But with every clue only comes more questions. And she’s running out of time to answer them.

Her only hope is a strangely alluring boy who claims to know her from before the crash. Who claims they were in love. But can she really trust him? And will he be able to protect her from the people who have been making her forget?

From popular young adult author, Jessica Brody comes a mesmerizing and suspenseful new series, set in a world where science knows no boundaries, memories are manipulated, and true love can never be forgotten.

Why I want to read it: This book sounds really good!  Not the part about the amnesia, but about basically not even existing anywhere.  I am curious to know what this is all about.  

What are you waiting for this week?
