What are you "Waiting On"?
by Julie Kagawa
Expected Publication: April 24th, 2012
Goodreads Synopsis: Allison Sekemoto
survives in the Fringe, the outermost circle of a vampire city. By day,
she and her crew scavenge for food. By night, any one of them could be
eaten.
Some days, all that drives Allie is her hatred of them. The vampires who keep humans as blood cattle. Until the night Allie herself is attacked—and given the ultimate choice. Die… or become one of the monsters.
Faced with her own mortality, Allie becomes what she despises most. To survive, she must learn the rules of being immortal, including the most important: go long enough without human blood, and you will go mad.
Then Allie is forced to flee into the unknown, outside her city walls. There she joins a ragged band of humans who are seeking a legend—a possible cure to the disease that killed off most of humankind and created the rabids, the mindless creatures who threaten humans and vampires alike.
But it isn't easy to pass for human. Especially not around Zeke, who might see past the monster inside her. And Allie soon must decide what—and who—is worth dying for.

Why do I want to read this? Umm, vampires plus dystopian? How can I NOT read it!! The synopsis sounds really good as well! Plus, it's Julie Kagawa! Who, while I have not yet read one of her books (Iron King is on my to read list this month!), I've heard is a great author :) So definitely looking forward to this book.
