Hey there. W.O.W. is hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine that features coming out books for everyone to get ready for and to add to their ever growing list of 'to-read' books.
I'm waiting on:
By: Brigid Kemmerer
Due Date: April 24, 2012
Goodreads: Earth, Fire, Air, Water – they have more power than you dream.
Ever since her ex-boyfriend spread those lies about her, Becca Chandler is suddenly getting all the guys—all the ones she doesn’t want. Then she saves Chris Merrick from a beating in the school parking lot. Chris is different. Way different: he can control water—just like his brothers can control fire, wind, and earth. They’re powerful. Dangerous. Marked for death.
And now that she knows the truth, so is Becca.
Secrets are hard to keep when your life’s at stake. When Hunter, the mysterious new kid around school, turns up with a talent for being in the wrong place at the right time, Becca thinks she can trust him. But then Hunter goes head-to-head with Chris, and Becca wonders who’s hiding the most dangerous truth of all.
The storm is coming . .

Why:
I love the idea of the elements. According to the Zodiac, I'm Earth, but I feel more into Water. I love it. But of course, with all the questioning of the Zodiac, I actually could be Fire. Since I'm adopted, I'm not sure when my actual birthday is, but I hope it's in the element Water.

Second reason: I had an idea for a book that is similar to this, but instead, my idea was that there are five boys instead of four. The fifth turned to the dark side. The brothers scattered to each part of the world to try to track him down. Then, Fire dude's friend, a girl (names aren't really in since this is only an idea) and she finds out about his secret. Then together, they decide to hunt down the rest of the boys and stop the Dark Brother from destroying the world.
See why I can't wait for this book? It would help me write my own.
Third: I LOVE AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER!
If you haven't watched this series yet, get to it. I love it. I haven't seen the movie, and personally, I don't want too. I think they might have strayed from the series. Beside, the TV version is SOOO much better.
Cover:
I like it. The guy in front, Chris, is hot. (Or, at least I'm assuming that it's Chris, since this book is about him.) The lightning in the background is perfect. Now the boys, they're a little fiffy. How about this: They would be cute if not for their hair. Their hair needs to be cut! No offense, but boys with long hair look stupid.
So, what are you waiting on?
Keep On Reading!
