Waiting on Wednesday

Started by Jill at   Breaking the Spine   Waiting on Wednesday   is a weekly meme where you feature the ONE book you're really looking forward to getting your hands on to read. Dystopian is hot right now so our choice was easy this week:  Blood Red Road by Moira Kelly. Just look at that cover. The mountains, dust clouds, Saba walking off. From the cover alone I would pick this up. We knew about this title but yesterday we were able to read the first 30 pages online and were hooked. All we can is this book is unique, different in style, and Saba, like our favorite heroine Katniss, is a strong protagonist. Check it out for yourselves at Simon & Schuster's Blood Red Road page . This book has already been optioned by famed  director Ridley Scott! Summary: Saba has spent her whole life in Silverlake, a dried-up wasteland ravaged by constant sandstorms. The Wrecker civilization has long been destroyed, leaving only landfills for Saba and her family to scavenge from. Tha
