Waiting on Wednesday (3): What’s Left of Me by Kat Zhang
NEVER LET ME GO meets HIS DARK MATERIALS in a beautiful, haunting YA debut, the first book in The Hybrid Trilogy.
Eva and Addie live in a world where everyone is born with two souls, but where only the dominant one is allowed to survive childhood. Fifteen years old, and closer even than twins, the girls are keeping Eva, the ‘second soul’, a secret. They know that it’s forbidden to be hybrid, but how could they ever be apart?
When a dramatic event reveals what really happens to hybrids if they are discovered, Eva and Addie face a dangerous fight for survival, neither wanting to be the one left behind…(UK summary)(From Goodreads)
I heard about this book less than a month ago and it has already become one of my favorite covers of all time and one of my most anticipated reads of 2012. I absolutely love books like this – ones that are definitely dystopian but seem to be heavily influenced by Sci-Fi, even if they’re not hard SF themselves. And that cover! It’s so pretty, and I love how there is the face inside of the silhouette of a profile! It’s not only an awesome cover, but it totally seems to fit the book, which makes it that much cooler in my opinion. I can’t wait for September to get here!

March 14, 2012 at 5:36 amFor the life of me, I can't understand what they mean by having two souls! Guess I'll have to read it to find out. I think this is a new title from what the author had originally. I believe that's what I read on her blog. Good choice.
