Teardrop by Lauren Kate
Publish Date: October 22, 2013
Publisher: Delacorte Books for Young Readers
I picked this book up at BEA but I haven't read it yet. I hope to do so soon, because I've heard it's great!
Never, ever cry. . . . Eureka Boudreaux's mother drilled that rule into her daughter years ago. But now her mother is gone, and everywhere Eureka goes he is there: Ander, the tall, pale blond boy who seems to know things he shouldn't, who tells Eureka she is in grave danger, who comes closer to making her cry than anyone has before.
But Ander doesn't know Eureka's darkest secret: ever since her mother drowned in a freak accident, Eureka wishes she were dead, too. She has little left that she cares about, just her oldest friend, Brooks, and a strange inheritance—a locket, a letter, a mysterious stone, and an ancient book no one understands. The book contains a haunting tale about a girl who got her heart broken and cried an entire continent into the sea. Eureka is about to discover that the ancient tale is more than a story, that Ander might be telling the truth . . . and that her life has far darker undercurrents than she ever imagined. From Lauren Kate comes an epic saga of heart-stopping romance, devastating secrets, and dark magic . . . a world where everything you love can be washed away.

Seems like a lot of people got this book despite the fact that Fallen wasn't that good for most of them. :p

Interesting synopsis! I liked the concoction of "heart-stopping romance, devastating secrets, and dark magic" I just hope the book delivers. I was a bit disappointed by LK's first book and never read on in that series, but the hype around this one makes me hopeful. :-)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for this one either! So far the reviews seem to be positive so I'm quite excited to get myself a copy. I hope you get around to reading it soon :)
