Cover Reveal: Annabel

EXCERPT
Lena's mother, Annabel, has always been a mystery—a ghost in Lena's past. Until now.
Discover her secrets in Lauren Oliver's brilliant original digital story set in the world of New York Times bestsellers Delirium and Pandemonium.
Lena Halloway's mother, Annabel, supposedly committed suicide when Lena was only six years old. That's the lie that Lena grew up believing, but the truth is very different. As a rebellious teenager, Annabel ran away from home and straight into the man she knew she was destined to marry. The world was different then—the regulations not as stringent, the cure only a decade old. Fast forward to the present, and Annabel is consigned to a dirty prison cell, where she nurtures her hope of escape and scratches one word over and over into the walls: Love.
But Annabel, like Lena, is a fighter. Through chapters that alternate between her past and present, Annabel reveals the story behind her failed cures, her marriage, the births of her children, her imprisonment, and, ultimately, her daring escape. - Goodreads
OMG! Another thing to add to my Christmas Wishlist!
Lauren Oliver did not only promised us Requiem but she also created another back-story for her bestselling series and this time its all about the elusive Annabel. I blog about these wonders HERE and to those who had read Pandemonium, we now knew that Lena had met her mother under ground while she was helping Lena and Jullian escape. Lena did not recognized her until later and she has a lot of questions for her.
So for those, Delirium fans out there (like myself). This novella will be released this Dec. 26, 2012. So better mark your calendars and pre-order now.
