Waiting on Wednesday: The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness

Wednesday 22 July 2015

Happy Wednesday! This week's book that I am looking forward to is:


The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness
Publishing Date: August 27th, 2015

What if you aren’t the Chosen One?

The one who’s supposed to fight the zombies, or the soul-eating ghosts, or whatever the heck this new thing is, with the blue lights and the death?

What if you’re like Mikey? Who just wants to graduate and go to prom and maybe finally work up the courage to ask Henna out before someone goes and blows up the high school. Again.

Because sometimes there are problems bigger than this week’s end of the world, and sometimes you just have to find the extraordinary in your ordinary life.

Even if your best friend is worshiped by mountain lions.

Award-winning writer Patrick Ness’s bold and irreverent novel powerfully reminds us that there are many different types of remarkable.


What book are you most looking forward to? Let me know!

Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine.

    1. I'm jealous! I still haven't read the Chaos Walking trilogy but I really liked A Monster Calls and More Than This. I hope you enjoy this and it lives up to your expectations! :)
