This week, I'm waiting on:
All Fall Down by Ally Carter
Release date: January 27, 2015
Grace Blakely is absolutely certain of three things:
1. She is not crazy.
2. Her mother was murdered.
3. Someday she is going to find the killer and make him pay.
As certain as Grace is about these facts, nobody else believes her–so there’s no one she can completely trust. Not her grandfather, a powerful ambassador. Not her new friends, who all live on Embassy Row. Not Alexei, the Russian boy next door who is keeping an eye on Grace for reasons she neither likes nor understands.
Everybody wants Grace to put on a pretty dress and a pretty smile, blocking out all her unpretty thoughts. But they can’t control Grace–no more than Grace can control what she knows or what she needs to do.
Her past has come back to hunt her . . . and if she doesn’t stop it, Grace isn’t the only one who will get hurt. Because on Embassy Row, the countries of the world all stand like dominoes, and one wrong move can make them all fall down.

I loved the Gallagher Girls series and I enjoyed the Heist Society series so I can't wait to read All Fall Down. I like Ally Carter's blend of humor and suspense. It always makes her books so entertaining.
Sadly, I have never read any books by Ally Carter and I probably need to remedy that! Her books were always a hit with my students. I will definitely add this to my TBR list. Thanks for sharing it!
ReplyDeleteI've only read the first three (so far) of the Gallagher Girls series, so haven't gotten into the Heist Society series yet, but can't wait to read this either. :)

i hadn't seen this one yet, i didn't know she had a new series out! i liked the heist society books.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to read this too. It has such a unique concept for a YA book. It should be action-packed. :)
ReplyDeleteLovely pick!

I'm so excited for this one! Carter's books are so intriguing, and from what I've seen on her tweets on Twitter, it sounds like this is going to be a different sort of story.
ReplyDeleteGreat WOW :D
