"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted by
Breaking the Spine, which spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
My Waiting on Wednesday this week includes:
Title: Velveteen
Author: Daniel Marks
Genre: YA Paranormal, Horror
Expected Release Date: October 9th, 2012
Velveteen Monroe is dead. At 16, she was kidnapped and murdered by a madman named Bonesaw. But that's not the problem.
The problem is she landed in purgatory. And while it's not a fiery inferno, it's certainly no heaven. It's gray, ashen, and crumbling more and more by the day, and everyone has a job to do. Which doesn't leave Velveteen much time to do anything about what's really on her mind.
Bonesaw.
Velveteen aches to deliver the bloody punishment her killer deserves. And she's figured out just how to do it. She'll haunt him for the rest of his days.
It'll be brutal . . . and awesome.
But crossing the divide between the living and the dead has devastating consequences. Velveteen's obsessive haunting cracks the foundations of purgatory and jeopardizes her very soul. A risk she's willing to take—except fate has just given her reason to stick around: an unreasonably hot and completely off-limits coworker.
Velveteen can't help herself when it comes to breaking rules . . . or getting revenge. And she just might be angry enough to take everyone down with her.

What are you waiting on?
Bound to be amazing. Daniel is incredibly cool. Big fan of his youtube vids. This will definitely have a lot of gore and a smart storyline. And I love the cover. Great pick :)
