Waiting on Wednesday - 116

Waiting on Wednesday was started by Jill at Breaking the Spine for bloggers and readers to see what new books are going to be released.

The Madness Underneath by Maureen Johnson

When madness stalks the streets of London, no one is safe…

There’s a creepy new terror haunting modern-day London. Fresh from defeating a Jack the Ripper killer, Rory must put her new-found hunting skills to the test before all hell breaks loose…

But enemies are not always who you expect them to be and crazy times call for crazy solutions. A thrilling teen mystery. (from GoodReads)


I really enjoyed The Name of the Star, which is the first book of the Shades of London series. I loved how it was a modern retelling of Jack the Ripper so I'm definitely looking forward to see the new villain. However, I don't like the cover at all, so I hope it doesn't turn people off to the book. The Madness Underneath will be released February 26, 2013.
