Can you believe it - I have never read a book by Meg Cabot. Stranger than strange, I know! I think I'll be starting with this one, though. I love the sound of Abandon, and check out that cover. Total cover candy! I just spotted the book trailer and thought I'd share it here.
What do you think? Will you be reading this one?
If you're one of the lucky people who've already read this one, let me know what you thought!
Abandon will also be released in the UK (Macmillan) in 2012.
Abandon by Meg CabotPublisher: Scholastic.Release date: April 26th 2011Ages: 14+
New from #1 New York Times bestselling author Meg Cabot, a dark, fantastical story about this world . . . and the underworld.
Though she tries returning to the life she knew before the accident, Pierce can't help but feel at once a part of this world, and apart from it. Yet she's never alone . . . because someone is always watching her. Escape from the realm of the dead is impossible when someone there wants you back.
But now she's moved to a new town. Maybe at her new school, she can start fresh. Maybe she can stop feeling so afraid.
Only she can't. Because even here, he finds her. That's how desperately he wants her back. She knows he's no guardian angel, and his dark world isn't exactly heaven, yet she can't stay away . . . especially since he always appears when she least expects it, but exactly when she needs him most.
But if she lets herself fall any further, she may just find herself back in the one place she most fears: the Underworld.
It's been a long time since I read a Meg Cabot book! I think I was in high school...Abandon sounds intriguing though. Since I'm not all that familiar with the author though, I might wait until I see some more reviews of it!
ReplyDeleteI used to love Meg Cabot when I was around 15. It's been so long since I read a book by her. Thanks for sharing the trailer with us! I am definitely going to read Abandon.
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for this one! Great trailer!
ReplyDeleteOhhh! I like that trailer. I actually haven't read any of her books either. I really should b/c I have a few in my classroom library. I look forward to your review!
ReplyDeleteI have never read a book by Cabot I didn't like, so yeah I can't wait to read this one. Thanks for sharing the trailer.
ReplyDelete:O! You have never read a single one of Meg Cabot's books?!? You are totally missing out! I think that I own a good 80% of her books! Anyways, this looks really great, typically I am not a fan of book trailers, but this one was actually done quite well!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad l'm not the only one who hasn't read a book by Meg, this does sound like a good book to start with =)
ReplyDeleteCool! I didn't know this one had a book trailer. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI have only read one Meg Cabot but I did really enjoy it. IT was Avalon High. I am sure Abandon has a similar theme to The Goddess Test by Aimee Carter.Though not sure.
ReplyDeleteGirl, your not alone! I haven't read any Meg Cabots book either. ;)
ReplyDeleteI actually GASPED when I read that you hadn't read anything by Meg Cabot. This one sounds really good, but I think Meg Cabot could write about ANYTHING and it would turn out genius.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Really want to read this one it sounds fab! Shame were not getting it in the UK for a while may have to snatch up a US edition :)
ReplyDeleteYou haven't read a book by Meg?! Abandon looks like a pretty good one to start with then!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for this book!! :)
