Waiting on Wednesday: In the Afterlight by Alexandra Bracken

The final book in The Darkest Minds series by Alexandra Bracken is coming out this month! October the 28, to be exact.  

Since the ending of Never Fade, I have wanted this book so much I could quite honestly die.  I only read the last book three months ago and I feel like the wait has been too long.  I cannot imagine what the people who read Never Fade last year are going through.  

Basically, the wait is almost over, yet I still feel like I have a million years left.  What am I supposed to do until then?  Nothing seems as exciting as this book.  Why, Alexandra Bracken, is it taking so long...?

World War III has left the world ravaged by nuclear radiation. A lucky few escaped to the Alaskan wilderness. They've survived for the last thirty years by living off the land, being one with nature, and hiding from whoever else might still be out there.

At least, this is what Juneau has been told her entire life.

When Juneau returns from a hunting trip to discover that everyone in her clan has vanished, she sets off to find them. Leaving the boundaries of their land for the very first time, she learns something horrifying: There never was a war. Cities were never destroyed. The world is intact. Everything was a lie.

Now Juneau is adrift in a modern-day world she never knew existed. But while she's trying to find a way to rescue her friends and family, someone else is looking for her. Someone who knows the extraordinary truth about the secrets of her past.
