Sinopsis: Cuando estás
estudiando para ser una exoveterinaria especializada en exóticas formas de vida
alienígenas, la escuela ... es un tipo diferente de animal.
Zenn Scarlett es una chica de 17
años, hábil, decidida a trabajar duro para pasar a través de su año de noviciado
en la formación de exovet. Eso significa que está aprendiendo a cuidar a las
criaturas exóticas que en su mayoría son grandes, generalmente peligrosas y
profundamente fascinantes. Los exámenes de fin de curso de la Clínica Exovet
Claustro Franciscana en Marte, los cuales son de suma importancia para Zenn, se
están acercando y ella está convencida de que bordará los exámenes. Pero cuando
una serie de inexplicables escapes de animales y otros eventos perturbadores
golpean la escuela, Zenn se encuentra a sí misma siendo culpable de los
problemas. Como si esto no es suficiente, su padre ausente cortó abruptamente
la comunicación con ella y Liam Tucker, un chico forastero local comienza
a actuar inusualmente, molesto,
amigable, y lo más extraño de todo: Zenn está preocupada porque empezó a
compartir los pensamientos de las criaturas a su alrededor. Lo cual es
imposible, por supuesto. Sin embargo, no puede negar lo que siente.
Pero con la ayuda de Liam y
Hamish, un insecto de ocho pies que también está siendo entrenado en la
clínica, Zenn debe averiguar lo que le pasó a su padre, a resolver el misterio
de quién está saboteando el claustro, y a determinar si en realidad está compartiendo
los pensamientos de sus pacientes alienígenas... o sí simplemente está
volviéndose loca. Todo esto sin dejar su año de noviciado ...
-Aunque este libro no saldrá
publicado hasta principios de mayo, gracias a NetGalley tuve la suerte de leer
un copia de lectura avanzada para reseñar el libro. El libro me encantó, está
lleno de aventuras, intriga, algo de romance y está ambientado en un posible
futuro dístopico (amo las distopias). Y a pesar de haberlo leído en formato
ebook quiero conseguir una copia en papel, por eso lo incluyo en el Waiting on
Wednesday de hoy. Desafortunadamente no creo que vayan a publicar el libro en
español en un futuro cercano, tendremos que conformarlos con el inglés por el
momento.

Release date in
U.S.A: May 7th 2013
Synopsis: When you're
studying to be exoveterinarian specializing in exotic, alien life forms,
school... is a different kind of animal.
Zenn Scarlett is a resourceful, determined 17-year-old girl working hard to make it through her novice year of exovet training. That means she's learning to care for alien creatures that are mostly large, generally dangerous and profoundly fascinating. Zenn’s all-important end-of-term tests at the Ciscan Cloister Exovet Clinic on Mars are coming up, and, she's feeling confident of acing the exams. But when a series of inexplicable animal escapes and other disturbing events hit the school, Zenn finds herself being blamed for the problems. As if this isn't enough to deal with, her absent father has abruptly stopped communicating with her; Liam Tucker, a local towner boy, is acting unusually, annoyingly friendly; and, strangest of all: Zenn is worried she's started sharing the thoughts of the creatures around her. Which is impossible, of course. Nonetheless, she can't deny what she's feeling.
Now, with the help of Liam and Hamish, an eight-foot sentient insectoid also training at the clinic, Zenn must learn what's happened to her father, solve the mystery of who, if anyone, is sabotaging the cloister, and determine if she's actually sensing the consciousness of her alien patients... or just losing her mind. All without failing her novice year...

- Although this book isl not going to be
published until early May, thanks to NetGalley I was lucky enough to read an
advanced reading copy of the book to review it. I loved the book,it is full of
adventure, intrigue, some romance and it
is set in a possible dystopian future (I love the dystopias). And despite thst
I have already read it in ebook I want to get a paperback copy, so I include it
in today´s Waiting on Wednesday. Unfortunately, I do not think that they will
publish the book in Spanish in the near future, we will have to conform with
English for the moment.
