It's Monday! What Are You Reading (10)

It's Monday! What Are You Reading is a weekly meme brought to you by BookJourney. Each Monday, you get to share what you're reading this week with the rest of the book blogsphere. When you've finished your post, go to BookJourney, and add your post's link to the link up tool. Readers of YA and teachers can also share their link on the link up tool on Teach Mentor Texts.

Last week, I was reading Zodiac by Romina Russell, and I planned to read Flawless by Sara Shepard. I didn't start the second Pretty Little Liars book because I forgot all about wanting to read another book.

Unfortunately, I got extremely sick over the weekend, and took a trip to the emergency room, so I don't know how much reading I'll actually get done this week.

What I'm Reading This Week:



Title: Atlantia
Author: Ally Condie
Synopsis:
Can you hear Atlantia breathing?

For as long as she can remember, Rio has dreamt of the sand and sky Above—of life beyond her underwater city of Atlantia. But in a single moment, all her plans for the future are thwarted when her twin sister, Bay, makes an unexpected decision, stranding Rio Below. Alone, ripped away from the last person who knew Rio’s true self—and the powerful siren voice she has long hidden—she has nothing left to lose.

Guided by a dangerous and unlikely mentor, Rio formulates a plan that leads to increasingly treacherous questions about her mother’s death, her own destiny, and the complex system constructed to govern the divide between land and sea. Her life and her city depend on Rio to listen to the voices of the past and to speak long-hidden truths.
