Waiting On Wednesday (#2)

Waiting On Wednesday is hosted by Breaking The Spine! For now, I may do this once or twice a month. I really like the idea of featuring a book that I'm looking forward to but I don't want to overdo it either.

Title: City of a Thousand Dolls
Author: Miriam Forster
Publisher: HarperTeen
Pages: 320
Release Date: February 5, 2013

Book Synopsis (from Goodreads.com):
The girl with no past, and no future, may be the only one who can save their lives.

Nisha was abandoned at the gates of the City of a Thousand Dolls when she was just a child. Now sixteen, she lives on the grounds of the isolated estate, where orphan girls apprentice as musicians, healers, courtesans, and, if the rumors are true, assassins. Nisha makes her way as Matron’s assistant, her closest companions the mysterious cats that trail her shadow. Only when she begins a forbidden flirtation with the city’s handsome young courier does she let herself imagine a life outside the walls. Until one by one, girls around her start to die.

Before she becomes the next victim, Nisha decides to uncover the secrets that surround the girls’ deaths. But by getting involved, Nisha jeopardizes not only her own future in the City of a Thousand Dolls—but her own life.

Why I'm Stoked:
Somehow the first I heard of this was during the ARC party that Epic Reads hosted. I actually watched the video of it afterward.

This book sounds SO good. I have a feeling that this is going to be action packed and Nisha sounds like a total badass!! I am very excited, I'll keep my fingers crossed for an ARC but I sincerely doubt it. Looks like I will be at B&N on February 5th!! One thing I know for sure, I'm glad I don't live in that city!
