Waiting on Wednesday: All Fall Down

Wednesday 26 November 2014


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine where the participants tell their readers about an upcoming release they are waiting to read. This week I've picked All Fall Down by Ally Carter.

Grace Blakely is absolutely certain of three things:
1. She is not crazy.
2. Her mother was murdered.
3. Someday she is going to find the killer and make him pay.

As certain as Grace is about these facts, nobody else believes her–so there’s no one she can completely trust. Not her grandfather, a powerful ambassador. Not her new friends, who all live on Embassy Row. Not Alexei, the Russian boy next door who is keeping an eye on Grace for reasons she neither likes nor understands. Everybody wants Grace to put on a pretty dress and a pretty smile, blocking out all her unpretty thoughts.

But they can’t control Grace–no more than Grace can control what she knows or what she needs to do. Her past has come back to hunt her . . . and if she doesn’t stop it, Grace isn’t the only one who will get hurt. Because on Embassy Row, the countries of the world all stand like dominoes, and one wrong move can make them all fall down.

I like the sound of this upcoming YA mystery/thriller with that espionage theme, so this book looks like a promising release.

Releasing 27th January 2015

  5. I am so ridiculously keen on this one. I think YA thriller/mystery (when done WELL) is becoming one of my favourite YA sub-genres. And this one sounds especially good. :D

    1. It definitely does Kara! I haven't either, but like you the fact that I'm already a mystery/thriller fan definitely has piqued my interest for this one.

    1. Me too! Books with those themes can either go down really well or just fall short of the mark. Hopefully it works out :)
