Above

By Leah Bobet

Release Date: April 1, 2012

Summary: Matthew has loved Ariel from the moment he found her in the tunnels, her bee's wings falling away. They live in Safe, an underground refuge for those fleeing the city Above—like Whisper, who speaks to ghosts, and Jack Flash, who can shoot lightning from his fingers. 

But one terrifying night, an old enemy invades Safe with an army of shadows, and only Matthew, Ariel, and a few friends escape Above. As Matthew unravels the mystery of Safe's history and the shadows' attack, he realizes he must find a way to remake his home—not just for himself, but for Ariel, who needs him more than ever before.

I am absolutely in love with this cover! I actually had no idea what this book was about until I made this post, but it's been on my TBR list for months. After reading the summary, it sounds even better! I love new, innovative stories and this ones sounds exactly like that. The story kind of reminds me of X-Men, which is just plain awesome. What I'm most excited for, though, is the love story between Matthew and Ariel. I can't wait to see what happens between them! Hopefully I can get my hands on this one as soon as it comes out :)
