Waiting on Wednesday (56)

Hey,

This week I'm waiting for...
Ink (The Paper Gods, #1)
Release Date: June 25, 2013
I looked down at the paper, still touching the tip of my shoe. I reached for it, flipping the page over to look.

Scrawls of ink outlined a drawing of a girl lying on a bench.

A sick feeling started to twist in my stomach, like motion sickness.

And then the girl in the drawing turned her head, and her inky eyes glared straight into mine.

On the heels of a family tragedy, the last thing Katie Greene wants to do is move halfway across the world. Stuck with her aunt in Shizuoka, Japan, Katie feels lost. Alone. She doesn’t know the language, she can barely hold a pair of chopsticks, and she can’t seem to get the hang of taking her shoes off whenever she enters a building.

Then there’s gorgeous but aloof Tomohiro, star of the school’s kendo team. How did he really get the scar on his arm? Katie isn’t prepared for the answer. But when she sees the things he draws start moving, there’s no denying the truth: Tomo has a connection to the ancient gods of Japan, and being near Katie is causing his abilities to spiral out of control. If the wrong people notice, they'll both be targets.

Katie never wanted to move to Japan—now she may not make it out of the country alive.

:O Wowza! I've never seen a book about life on paper before... this should be interesting! I think the closest I've come to this kind of idea was when I played "Drawn to Life" on the Nintendo Wii... I guess that doesn't really count, but they are based on the similar lines. 

And the cover is gorgeous so bring it on! (Not to mention all the positive reviews.)

  1. The cover for Ink looks amazing! That's probably why I requested an eGalley on Netgalley and I have been accepted, so, I think you should request one too ^^

    Hope you'll enjoy the book, I still need to start it.

  4. I'm actually not too interested in this one, though I've been following the author and this book for some reason. It doesn't really appeal to me, BUT, I may read it if it's in my local public library. I do hope that you get to read it soon! And I hope that you enjoy it :)
