Waiting On Wednesday.

Whenever it's my turn to do this, I always think, 'oooh, easy! I got this.'.

And inevitably, I sit down to write it up and I CAN'T. PICK! I mean, there's just so many good books coming out. There's THE TWELVE, the followup to Justin Cronin's THE PASSAGE--which if you haven't read, omg, go. Right now. I'll wait.
Or there's DAYS OF BLOOD AND STARLIGHT, the sequel to DAUGHTER OF SMOKE AND BONE (one of my best reads of 2012). There's UNRAVEL ME. There's GODDESS INHERITANCE. There's PRODIGY.
Do you see?? Your asking a book addict to pick a ONE book I'm excited about coming out. I just...I just CAN'T.

So. You get two. First up is the debut:

CREWEL by Gennifer Albin comes out October 16th and sounds amazing! Here's it's synopsis:
What a tangled world she weaves...
For generations, Spinsters have been called by Arras’s Manipulation Services to work the looms and determine what people eat, where they live, how many children they have, and even when they die. Gifted with the rare ability to weave time with matter, Adelice is exactly what the Guild is looking for, and in Arras, being chosen as a Spinster is everything a girl could want. It means privilege, eternal beauty, and being something other than a secretary. It also means the power to embroider the very fabric of life. But once you become a Spinster, there is no turning back. Now caught in a web of lies and intrigue, Adelice must decide who to trust: her kind mentor, Enora; the handsome and mysterious valet Jost; or the charismatic Guild ambassador Cormac Patton. They each have secrets, but Adelice is about to unravel the deadliest one of all, a sinister truth that could destroy reality as she knows it.
In a powerful and original debut about a world where the Guild decides everything, one extraordinary girl dares to defy the power of men and the boundaries of love.
AND the sequel to one of last year's favorites:

The Evolution of Mara Dyer comes out October 23! I'm not gonna give you a synopsis because it's too spoilery for the first book (The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer) but let me just say this: Noah. Shaw.

SO! What are YOU looking forward to??
