Waiting on Wednesday #9

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spines. 
Check out my WoW for this week:

Immortal City (Immortal City, #1)

Immortal City (Immortal City #1)

by 
Published: April 3rd 2012 
Publisher: Razorbill
Purchase: Amazon | Book Depository
Synopsis via Goodreads:
Jackson Godspeed is the hottest young Angel in a city filled with them.



He's days away from becoming a full Guardian, and people around the world are already competing for the chance to be watched over by him. Everyone's obsessed with the Angels and the lucky people they protect - everyone except for Madison Montgomery.





Maddy's the one girl in Angel City who doesn't breathlessly follow the Angels on TV and gossip blogs. When she meets Jackson, she doesn't recognize him. But Jackson is instantly captivated by her, and against all odds the two fall in love.



Maddy is swiftly caught up in Jackson's scene, a world of glamour, paparazzi - and murder. A serial killer is on the loose, leaving dead Angels' wings for the police to find on the Walk of Fame. Even the Guardians are powerless to protect themselves in the face of this threat & and this time it's up to Maddy to save Jackson.

Natural Born Angel (Immortal City, #2)

Natural Born Angel (Immortal City #2)

by 
Expected publication: April 2013 
Publisher: Razorbill
Synopsis via Goodreads:
Life turned upside down for Maddy Montgomery when she found out she was half-Angel and was catapulted into the scene of flashbulbs, paparazzi, and the fervent adulation that comes with being in the celebrity Angel world. She's trying to juggle her ordinary life—high school, family, friends—with the intense demands of being in the public eye as heartthrob Angel Jackson Godspeed's girlfriend.


And now Maddy must face the most difficult choice of her life. She's been offered the chance to become a Guardian. This means entering into dangerous and high stakes training, with no guarantee that she can succeed. But more than that, it would mean leaving her mortal life behind—forever—and allying with the Angels at a time when their relationship with humans is heading for war. . . 

What are you waiting on?

    I really like both covers! Especially Natural Born Angel. <3 Usually angels are portrayed with ethereal atmosphere in covers, so it's nice to see change. The blurb for Natural Born Angel is very intriguing too! x)

    Fabulous pick for WOW this week, Shane! <3
