The Time Will Come (6): Abandon by Meg Cabot

The Time Will Come is a weekly meme started by Books for Company which spotlights books that have been sitting unread on our shelves for too long.*
From Goodreads:

New from #1 New York Times bestselling author Meg Cabot, a dark, fantastical story about this world . . . and the underworld.
Though she tries returning to the life she knew before the accident, Pierce can't help but feel at once a part of this world, and apart from it. Yet she's never alone . . . because someone is always watching her. Escape from the realm of the dead is impossible when someone there wants you back.
But now she's moved to a new town. Maybe at her new school, she can start fresh. Maybe she can stop feeling so afraid.
Only she can't. Because even here, he finds her. That's how desperately he wants her back. She knows he's no guardian angel, and his dark world isn't exactly heaven, yet she can't stay away . . . especially since he always appears when she least expects it, but exactly when she needs him most.
But if she lets herself fall any further, she may just find herself back in the one place she most fears: the Underworld.
Why the time hasn't come: 


I've got so many other books on my shelf but I've really been looking forward to this one. I have to get to and soon since I'm going to the this is Teen event in Miami on July 23rd. I can't wait to dig in. I'm such a huge fan of the Hades/Persephone story! 


What's been sitting on you bookshelf for too long?

    I haven't read a single word against this book. Not having read anything by Meg Cabot before, this seems like a good one to start with :)

    Make time for this one soon

    I really want to read this book too. I've loved all the recent mythology based YA books.

Thinking of writing something below? Well, that's why you are awesome! I always love feedback!

This blog is an award free zone. With the demand of a full time job, blogging time is becoming much more precious and I just don't have the time to meet the demands of awards. Thanks so much for thinking of me anyway!
