Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme from Breaking the Spine that lets us showcase upcoming books we are most excited about.
This week my pick is:
Release Date: August 28, 2012
Publisher: Balzer and Bray
Synopsis:
Eva’s life is not her own. She is a creation, an abomination—an echo. Made by the Weavers as a copy of someone else, she is expected to replace a girl named Amarra, her “other”, if she ever died. Eva studies what Amarra does, what she eats, what it’s like to kiss her boyfriend, Ray. So when Amarra is killed in a car crash, Eva should be ready.
But fifteen years of studying never prepared her for this.
Now she must abandon everything she’s ever known—the guardians who raised her, the boy she’s forbidden to love—to move to India and convince the world that Amarra is still alive.
The cover of this one really draws me in right away. And then when I read the synopsis I really love the idea of this book. And the fact that it will take place in a different country really intrigues me!

This one looks really good! I'm excited for it, too. It so different from anything else I've read (at least I expect it to be).
