Excuse me for a moment while I squee like a 14 year old girl.
Ok…I feel better. Anyways, let me tell you why I am so excited about this book. Red Dawn meets Legend. KAPOW!
Yep, this book is being touted as a mixture of the cult classic Red Dawn (which I own…both the original and remake) and Marie Lu’s Legend, which we all know rocks. I mean read the synopsis for a second. Terrorist and High School students? Doesn’t get much wilder than that does it? Oh wait…yes it does! ONE WRONG CHOICE COULD TRIGGER AN EXPLOSION THAT ENDS IT ALL!!! (*insert appropriately dramatic background music.) I’m a junkie for action and this book has hellfire and damnation written all over it. *fist pump*
This is what I am waiting for.
