Waiting On Wednesday #15

Here are my picks for the week:
 
 
Touched (Touched, #1)
Summary:
Remy O'Malley has the power to heal people with her touch, but here ability comes at a steep cost because every illness or injury she heals becomes her own.' to 'Remy O'Malley has the power to heal people with her touch, but her ability comes at a steep cost because every illness or injury she heals becomes her own.

Length: 304 Pages
Expected Publication Date: November 27th 2012 by Kensington Teen
 
Why I'm Waiting:
Though the summary is really short it has me really interested. I always love books like this so I'm hoping this one will be as good as I hope it will be.
 
Undeadly (The Reaper Diaries, #1)
Summary:
The day I turned 16, my boyfriend-to-be died. I brought him back to life. Then things got a little weird...
Molly Bartolucci wants to blend in, date hottie Rick and keep her zombie-raising abilities on the down-low. Then the god Anubis chooses her to become a reaper—and she accidentally undoes the work of another reaper, Rath.

Within days, she’s shipped off to the Nekyia Academy, an elite school that trains the best necromancers in the world. And her personal reaping tutor? Rath. Who seems to hate her guts.

Rath will be watching closely to be sure she completes her first assignment-reaping Rick, the boy who should have died. The boy she still wants to be with.

To make matters worse, students at the academy start turning up catatonic, and accusations fly—against Molly. The only way out of this mess? To go through hell. Literally.

Why I'm Waiting:
I really like the cover and I've been seeing it around a lot recently so it's really got my curiosity piqued.
 
 
The Syndicate
 
Summary:
For centuries, the Petrescu family has been protecting society from a danger that moves among the population undetected. Eighteen-year-old Vasi Petrescu has never had a problem carrying out his duty, but, when ordered to eliminate an eighteen-year-old girl, he is immediately taken out of his comfort zone.

The Syndicate has never targeted a female before, yet somehow this one has ended up on more than one hit list. Vasi would like to find out why, but there may not be time.

Now, he'll have to decide whether or not to keep her alive even if it means going against his own family.

The action, mystery, and conspiracy in The Syndicate will take readers on an immersing journey in which decisions are not only life changing, but irreversible.

  4. Touched sounds very, very interesting! Same goes for The Syndicate. Thanks for sharing those! I already had my eyes on Undeadly. Although there are a lot of reaper novels coming up lately, I think they're all interesting. I haven't come around to even one yet. x)
