Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event . . . well, happening every Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. We post and goggle at books we want to check out, books we want to love, and books needed in our hands ASAP.
This week, the book I'm dying to have is Linked by Imogen Howson. Just read the blurb, and you'll know why I want it so bad.

Elissa used to have it all: looks, popularity, and a bright future. But for the last three years, she’s been struggling with terrifying visions, phantom pains, and mysterious bruises that appear out of nowhere. Finally, she’s promised a cure: minor surgery to burn out the overactive area of her brain. But on the eve of the procedure, she discovers the shocking truth behind her hallucinations: she’s been seeing the world through another girl’s eyes. Elissa follows her visions, and finds a battered, broken girl on the run. A girl—Lin—who looks exactly like Elissa, down to the matching bruises. The twin sister she never knew existed. Now, Elissa and Lin are on the run from a government who will stop at nothing to reclaim Lin and protect the dangerous secrets she could expose—secrets that would shake the very foundation of their world. Riveting, thought-provoking and utterly compelling, Linked will make you question what it really means to be human.
Are you still questioning me? Come on!
Surgeries, twins, mystery . . . it seems like the author knows exactly what I want. I've never heard of a storyline like this before. Despite the cliche last sentence in the fourth paragraph, I can't wait to get my hands on this one.
Plus, it also helps the cover looks gorgeous. I'm drooling just looking at it! Heck, even the text looks good . . .
The problem? It's coming out at 2013, according to Goodreads. I can't wait that long . . .
