Goodreads summary: Beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover returns with an unforgettable love story between a writer and his unexpected muse.

Fallon meets Ben, an aspiring novelist, the day of her scheduled cross-country move. Their untimely attraction leads them to spend Fallon’s last day in L.A. together, and her eventful life becomes the creative inspiration Ben has always sought for his novel. Over time and amidst the various relationships and tribulations of their own separate lives, they continue to meet on the same date every year. Until one day Fallon becomes unsure if Ben has been telling her the truth or fabricating a perfect reality for the sake of the ultimate plot twist.

MY THOUGHTS

I don't read a lot of new adult to be honest, but I love CoHo's novels. Whenever you're sad, or when you're in a reading slump, you can just pick one of them, eat it, and then you'll feel better. I loved every romance she wrote, I got all the feels, so I trust her. I probably won't pick up this novel when it's out, I'll keep it for sad days. ;)

Title: Soundless
Author: Richelle Mead
Published: November 10th 2015 by Razorbill

Goodreads summary: From Richelle Mead, the #1 internationally bestselling author of Vampire Academy and Bloodlines, comes a breathtaking new fantasy steeped in Chinese folklore. 

For as long as Fei can remember, there has been no sound in her village, where rocky terrain and frequent avalanches prevent residents from self-sustaining. Fei and her people are at the mercy of a zipline that carries food up the treacherous cliffs from Beiguo, a mysterious faraway kingdom. 

When villagers begin to lose their sight, deliveries from the zipline shrink and many go hungry. Fei’s home, the people she loves, and her entire existence is plunged into crisis, under threat of darkness and starvation.

But soon Fei is awoken in the night by a searing noise, and sound becomes her weapon.

Richelle Mead takes readers on a triumphant journey from the peak of Fei’s jagged mountain village to the valley of Beiugo, where a startling truth and an unlikely romance will change her life forever...

MY THOUGHTS

I loved Vampire Academy, and Bloodlines even more. I'm not really interested in Mead's other works, but this one intrigued me. I haven't read a lot of books dealing with Chinese folklore and I always want to try new genres out, it would be a good idea to read this one. However, it doesn't seem to be a long book (272 pages *sighs*) so I'll just read it as an ebook. Even if for once, the cover is gorgeous for one of Mead's books!

Are you excited for these books? Which book(s) are you waiting for this Wednesday?
