"Waiting on" Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases.
 
 
Uninvited by
Expected publication: January 28th 2014 by HarperTeen
 
 
The Scarlet Letter meets Minority Report in bestselling author Sophie Jordan's chilling new novel about a teenage girl who is ostracized when her genetic test proves she's destined to become a murderer.

When Davy Hamilton's tests come back positive for Homicidal Tendency Syndrome (HTS)-aka the kill gene-she loses everything. Her boyfriend ditches her, her parents are scared of her, and she can forget about her bright future at Juilliard. Davy doesn't feel any different, but genes don't lie. One day she will kill someone.

Only Sean, a fellow HTS carrier, can relate to her new life. Davy wants to trust him; maybe he's not as dangerous as he seems. Or maybe Davy is just as deadly.
 
 
 
 
How perfect does Uninvited sound? And that cover, the hair. Love.
 
What are you waiting on? :)

I loved this one--SERIOUSLY loved it--but PLEASE do not expect The Scarlet Letter to Meet Minority Report anywhere in the vicinity of this book. It is largely a romance, with some really cool scary, creepy feelings of hopelessness and unfairness that come from people being judged for their genetic makeup.
