Waiting on Wednesday : Panic by Lauren Oliver

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by us, that highlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week's pre-publication 'can't-wait-to-read' selection is:


PanicTitle: Panic
Author: Lauren Oliver
Release Date: 4th March 2014
Publisher: HarperCollins
Find on: Goodreads

Panic began as so many things do in Carp, a dead-end town of 12,000 people in the middle of nowhere: because it was summer, and there was nothing else to do.


Heather never thought she would compete in Panic, a legendary game played by graduating seniors, where the stakes are high and the payoff is even higher. She’d never thought of herself as fearless, the kind of person who would fight to stand out. But when she finds something, and someone, to fight for, she will discover that she is braver than she ever thought.

Dodge has never been afraid of Panic. His secret will fuel him, and get him all the way through the game, he’s sure of it. But what he doesn't know is that he’s not the only one with a secret. Everyone has something to play for.

For Heather and Dodge, the game will bring new alliances, unexpected revelations, and the possibility of first love for each of them—and the knowledge that sometimes the very things we fear are those we need the most.


The cover reveal of Panic was today! So I also decided to do WoW to celebrate! The story reminds me of The Hunger Games but I think and hope it will be something different! And the cover is so pretty and it think it really relates to the story! Heather looks beautiful in it! Well done to whoever designed the cover!

  6. I have never read a Lauren Oliver book. I picked up Delirium and Before I Fall and couldn't get into either. This one looks super good though. I may have to give it a try when it releases because it sounds intriguing. Thanks for sharing :)
