Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where we get together to discuss upcoming books that we are eagerly awaiting.This will of course be the last one of 2011! Yay! I have a hard time doing this some time because there are soooooo many books out there that I am looking forward to. So I scrolled through my Goodreads list for one I had on my to-read list that already had a picture for the cover.
My choice this week is Underworld by Meg Cabot, which is a sequel to her book Abandon. 
Here is the summary from Goodreads:
Here is the summary from Goodreads:Seventeen-year-old Pierce Oliviera isn’t dead. Not this time. But
she is being held against her will in the dim, twilit world between heaven and
hell, where the spirits of the deceased wait before embarking upon their final
journey. Her captor, John Hayden, claims it’s for her own safety. Because
not all the departed are dear. Some are so unhappy with where they ended up
after leaving the Underworld, they’ve come back as Furies, intent on vengeance .
. . on the one who sent them there and on the one whom he loves. But
while Pierce might be safe from the Furies in the Underworld, far worse dangers
could be lurking for her there . . . and they might have more to do with its
ruler than with his enemies. And unless Pierce is careful, this time
there’ll be no escape.

I wasn't in love with Abandon, so I'll prolly skip this one, but I'm sure Cabot fans will love it!

The covers for this series are so appealing, even though this one's a little dark. I have trouble with adaptations for the most part so I'm not sure I'll read this, but it's a great pick for WOW. 🙂
