Waiting on Wednesday!!!

"The Millgrove talent show has the same performances as any other small town — a cheesy ventriloquist, off-key karaoke singers, and bad dance routines. But after Kyle Straker is hypnotized as part of his friend’s mysterious new act, Millgrove will never be the same again. 


When Kyle and the other volunteers awaken, the entire audience, the entire town, and possibly the entire world, is frozen still. Telephones, radios, televisions, and computers no longer work— only a strange language flashes across the screens. When everybody 
suddenly wakes up, it becomes clear that they have changed—and that Kyle is now an outsider, one of the 0.4. 


Is Kyle still under hypnosis, or is this chilling new world real? Will he awaken from a dream to roars of laughter, or is there something much more sinister happening? 


One of the last of his kind, Kyle records his story on a series of cassette tapes, describing the shift, and what it means for the future of mankind."

"Princess and heir to the throne of Thorvaldor, Nalia knows her role in life. But everything changes when she learns, just after her sixteenth birthday, that she is a false princess–a stand-in for the real Nalia, who has been hidden away for her protection. Cast out with little more than the clothes on her back, the girl now called Sinda must leave behind the city, her best friend, Kiernan, and the only life she’s ever known. 

While struggling with her new peasant life, Sinda discovers that magic runs through her veins–long-suppressed, dangerous magic that she must learn to control. Returning to the city to seek answers, she instead uncovers a secret that could change the course of Thorvaldor’s history forever. "


I hope you liked both of those summaries, I sure did! The first one sounds very interesting, dystopian style, and the second one (though totally different) sounds just so interesting! Being someone all of your life and then having that identity taken away from you... Great. 


Well, enjoy both of them!
