Waiting on Wednesday 10/09/19
“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that first originated at Breaking the Spine but has since linked up with “Can’t Wait Wednesday” at Wishful Endings now that the original creator is unable to host it anymore. Either way, this fun feature is a chance to showcase the upcoming releases that we can’t wait to get our hands on!
Mogsy’s Pick
The Book of Koli by M.R. Carey (April 14, 2020 by Orbit)
What’s this? A new book coming out by M.R. Carey? Well, you know that’s going straight onto the TBR!
“The first in a gripping new trilogy, The Book of Koli charts the journey of one unforgettable young boy struggling to find his place in a chilling post-apocalyptic world. Perfect for readers of Station Eleven and Annihilation.
Beyond the walls of the small village of Mythen Rood lies an unrecognizable world. A world where overgrown forests are filled with choker trees and deadly vines and seeds that will kill you where you stand. And if they don’t get you, one of the dangerous shunned men will.
Koli has lived in Mythen Rood his entire life. He knows the first rule of survival is that you don’t venture beyond the walls.
What he doesn’t know is — what happens when you aren’t given a choice?”
Wow! A dystopian trilogy!?! It’s been a while since I read one of those! And LOOK AT THAT COVERR!! 😍😍❤️❤️❤️ I AM INTRIGUED TOOO! I hope you get this one sooon! Enjoy reading, Mogsy! ❤️❤️

I have such a good time with his books – Girl with All the Gifts and Boy on the Bridge are great if you haven’t read those already! 😀

Definitely sounds intriguing, and I can see the Annihilation comparison too a little bit. I haven’t read MR Carey yet either *sigh* I’ve been meaning to for a while.
