On My Wishlist (19)




On My Wishlist is a fun weekly event hosted by Book Chick City and runs every Saturday. It's where we list all the books we desperately want but haven't actually bought yet. They can be old, new or forthcoming. It's also an event that you can join in with too - Mr Linky is always at the ready for you to link your own 'On My Wishlist' post. Want to know more? Click here


This week I'm feeling Alien....my home people my mother likes to say... :)


So the first one is-


How to Date an Alien (My Alien Romance #1) by Magan Vernon  
Publication Date: December 6th 2011
Genre: YA Science Fiction
Pages: 272





Summary


High school senior Alex Bianchi's estranged father gets her an internship at Circe Operations Center to pad her college applications. But Circe isn't your typical military base. It's an alien-run operation center and not all of the aliens are friendly, especially the one that tries to kill Alex on her first day. When Ace, a dark-eyed Caltian, enters and saves the day, she can't help but be drawn to him. Can these star-crossed lovers survive when they're on the brink of intergalactic war?


The cover is just *sigh* adorable and it totally drew me in. The concept sounds fun and me....I need some Aliens in my piles of books. I'm mean I love them on TV and I do have an Alien book in mind.

So, 

Let's just say this isn't apart of my book alcoholic problem, but just for some "reasearch". Haha <3 


And the second is-


Obsidian (Lux #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Publication Date: December 6th 2011
Genre: YA Fantasy
Pages: 292






Summary

Starting over sucks.When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I'd pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring.... until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up.And then he opened his mouth.Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy.

We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something...unexpected happens. The hot alien living next door marks me.You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon's touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I'm getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. If I don't kill him first, that is.
