The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black
Expected publication: September 3rd 2013
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Format/Pages: Hardcover, 432 pages

Tana lives in a world where walled cities called Coldtowns exist. In them, quarantined monsters and humans mingle in a decadently bloody mix of predator and prey. The only problem is, once you pass through Coldtown’s gates, you can never leave.

One morning, after a perfectly ordinary party, Tana wakes up surrounded by corpses. The only other survivors of this massacre are her exasperatingly endearing ex-boyfriend, infected and on the edge, and a mysterious boy burdened with a terrible secret. Shaken and determined, Tana enters a race against the clock to save the three of them the only way she knows how: by going straight to the wicked, opulent heart of Coldtown itself.

The Coldest Girl in Coldtown is a wholly original story of rage and revenge, of guilt and horror, and of love and loathing from bestselling and acclaimed author Holly Black.

Holly Black is one of the popular YA authors out there but I have yet read a book of hers that I really like. I tried reading White Cat but I couldn’t get passed the first 50 pages so I dnfed it. But I have the feeling that I will like this one. I just hope my instinct is right this time.
