Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights books whose
releases we are eagerly awaiting!
Pawn (The Blackcoat Rebellion #1)
by: Aimee Carter
Expected Publication: Nov. 26, 2013
YOU CAN BE A VII. IF YOU GIVE UP EVERYTHING.
For Kitty Doe, it seems like an easy choice. She can either spend her life as a III in misery, looked down upon by the higher ranks and forced to leave the people she loves, or she can become a VII and join the most powerful family in the country.
If she says yes, Kitty will be Masked—surgically transformed into Lila Hart, the Prime Minister's niece, who died under mysterious circumstances. As a member of the Hart family, she will be famous. She will be adored. And for the first time, she will matter.
There's only one catch. She must also stop the rebellion that Lila secretly fostered, the same one that got her killed and one Kitty believes in. Faced with threats, conspiracies and a life that's not her own, she must decide which path to choose—and learn how to become more than a pawn in a twisted game she's only beginning to understand.

I really enjoyed Aimee's Goddess Test series, so I am definitely looking forward to her next series! I think this will be really interesting to see how she creates her caste system too!
What are you waiting on this week?

Yes! Sometimes even the most simple covers can be the most striking!
DeleteOoh, this sounds really good. I haven't heard of this author but I need to go check out her other series.
ReplyDeleteHer Goddess Test series is cute. It's not GREAT, but definitely enjoyable.
DeleteI'm so curious about this one, too. I had to talk myself from requesting it when it popped up on NG, but I'm trying to be super strict about what I snag. I can't wait to hear what you think! Great pick!
