Waiting on Wednesday (9): Out of Sight, Out of Time by Ally Carter

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week I’m featuring Ally Carter’s upcoming release of the fifth novel in the Gallagher Girls series: Out of Sight, Out of Time. 

Title: Out of Sight, Out of Time (Gallagher Girls #5)

Author: Ally Carter

Publisher: Hyperion Children’s Books

Pages: 272

ISBN: 9781423147947

Release Date: March 20, 2012

Description:  The last thing Cammie Morgan remembers is leaving the Gallagher Academy to protect her friends and family from the Circle of Cavan--an ancient terrorist organization that has been hunting her for over a year. But when Cammie wakes up in an alpine convent and discovers months have passed, she must face the fact that her memory is now a black hole.  The only traces left of Cammie’s summer vacation are the bruises on her body and dirt under her nails, and all she wants is to go home.

Once she returns to school, however, Cammie realizes that even the Gallagher Academy now holds more questions than answers.  Cammie, her friends, and mysterious spy-guy Zach must face their most difficult challenge yet as they travel to the other side of the world, hoping to piece together the clues that Cammie left behind.   It’s a race against time.  The Circle is hot on their trail and willing stop at nothing to prevent Cammie from remembering what she did last summer.

Why I’m excited:  I LOVE Ally Carter’s books.  The Gallagher Girls series is one of my favorites of all time.  I have yet to read her other series (Heist Society), but I have them both on my shelf and will read them sometime soon.  I featured this book in a Follow Friday a while back as a book I'd LOVE to have an ARC of.  I asked Ally if such things would exist, in eBook form or otherwise and found out there are no early releases :(.  Since I have to wait until March anyway, I'll have time to re-read all 4 Gallagher Girls books before this one comes out because it’s been so long since I’ve read the last one.  These are such great stories about spies and they’re quick reads which is awesome.

Preorder Out of Sight, Out of Time from Amazon (Hardcover) or Barnes & Noble (Hardcover) or The Book Depository (Hardcover – US Cover. UK version also available)

What are you looking forward to this week?
