Waiting On Wednesday (113)


This is a meme hosted by Breaking the Spine where every Wednesday bloggers highlight a book that they are eagerly anticipating the release of!

Alienated
By Melissa Landers
Release Date: February 4, 2014
Summary: Interplanetary relations have never been more exciting! The first in a funny, romantic YA sci-fi series.

Two years ago, the aliens made contact. Now Cara Sweeney is going to be sharing a bathroom with one of them. 

Handpicked to host the first-ever L’eihr exchange student, Cara thinks her future is set. Not only does she get a free ride to her dream college, she’ll have inside information about the mysterious L’eihrs that every journalist would kill for. Cara’s blog following is about to skyrocket.

Still, Cara isn’t sure what to think when she meets Aelyx. Humans and L’eihrs have nearly identical DNA, but cold, infuriatingly brilliant Aelyx couldn’t seem more alien. She’s certain about one thing, though: no human boy is this good-looking.

But when Cara's classmates get swept up by anti-L'eihr paranoia, Midtown High School suddenly isn't safe anymore. Threatening notes appear in Cara's locker, and a police officer has to escort her and Aelyx to class. 

Cara finds support in the last person she expected. She realizes that Aelyx isn’t just her only friend; she's fallen hard for him. But Aelyx has been hiding the truth about the purpose of his exchange, and its potentially deadly consequences. Soon Cara will be in for the fight of her life—not just for herself and the boy she loves, but for the future of her planet.

After reading the Lux series by Jennifer L Armentrout, I've been much more open to reading books about aliens. And this one sounds great! Hosting an alien that turns out to grind on your nerves, but in a totally flirty way? I can't wait to see how this one turns out and to find out what the fuss is over Aelyx!

  4. This one sounds really good and I have seen it around a few times. I think it is an interesting idea to have like a foreign exchange student that is an alien. Great pick! My WoW.

  8. I was SO lucky and won an ARC from the author and it was AMAZING! You are totally going to love it. It has a really great contemporary feel to it as well as the other worldly.

    Great choice!
