I am Lucy, I am a lover of books and guinea pigs, I am a nerd and I don’t care.

I am a daughter, a granddaughter, a godmother, a friend, an acquaintance, a random girl on the street.

I live in England, where it perpetually rains.

I’m a procrastinator, a daydreamer, an obsessor. 

I want to be older, but I cling on to the last threads of childhood, embrace my teen years. 

Self-confidence and belief is important to me, and expressing the person I really am.

I’m an introvert – I prefer my own company and get nervous in crowds, but I’m getting better.

I have issues, but I’m working on them. One step at a time. 

I’m grateful to my friends and family. I don’t say it often enough, but I am.

I read books, but that doesn’t just define me. I’m not the books I read, but they have played a major part in my life.

I am Lucy, and I am proud to be me.

Waiting on Wednesday (5)

New WoW

 

“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that people are eagerly anticipating.

This week I’ve chosen a book I’m very excited to read that comes out in 2014. I was a massive fan of her debut  and so 2014 cannot come soon enough.

The book is…

the-fearless

The Fearless by Emma Pass! 

The Fearless. An army, powered by an incredible new serum that makes each soldier stronger, sharper, faster than their enemies. Intended as a force for good, the serum has a terrible side-effect – anyone who takes it is stripped of all humanity, empathy, love. And as the Fearless sweep through the country, forcing the serum on anyone in their path, society becomes a living nightmare.

Cass remembers the night they passed through her village. Her father was Altered. Her mother died soon after. All Cass has left is her little brother – and when Jori is snatched by the Fearless and taken to their hellish lair, Cass must risk everything to get him back.

I loved ACID and this one sounds amazing too. Emma is now one of my favourite authors so I’m sure this will be brilliant. And the cover is just so gorgeous!

What are you waiting on this week?
