Wishlist Wednesday is a book blog hop hosted by Dani at Pen to Paper Blog where we will post about one book per

shelves.

Three
levels. Two loves. One choice. Debut novelist, Lenore Appelhans has written a
thrilling otherworldly young adult novel about a place that exists between our
world (Level 1) and what comes after life (Level 2).
'I pause to look around the hive - all the podlike chambers are lit up as the drones shoot up on memories ... I've wanted to get out of here before, but now the tight quarters start to choke me. There has to be more to death than this.'
Felicia Ward is dead. Trapped in a stark white afterlife limbo, she spends endless days replaying memories, of her family, friends, boyfriend ... and of the guy who broke her heart. The guy who has just broken into Level 2 to find her.
Felicia learns that a rebellion is brewing, and it seems she is the key. Suspended between heaven and earth, she must make a choice. Between two worlds, two lives and two loves.

I’ve seen
this book around the blogosphere and YouTube recently since it just came out last
month but I saw it a couple weeks ago in the bookstore and it really caught my
eye. I like the cover even though the lines across her face bother me. At first
I thought there was something wrong with the book I had. I read the first
couple pages and it was holding my interest. I can’t wait to get my hands on
it.
Have you read this book yet? What are
your thoughts on it?
Great pick! I really want this one as well, hope we both get it soon :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by :)
I read it and wasn't too thrilled, but I know bunches of other bloggers thought it was AMAZING.
