Acid
by Emma Pass 

Goodreads synopsis:
2113. In Jenna Strong’s world, ACID – the most brutal, controlling police force in history – rule supreme. No throwaway comment or muttered dissent goes unnoticed – or unpunished. And it was ACID agents who locked Jenna away for life, for a bloody crime she struggles to remember.

The only female inmate in a violent high-security prison, Jenna has learned to survive by any means necessary. And when a mysterious rebel group breaks her out, she must use her strength, speed and skill to stay one step ahead of ACID – and to uncover the truth about what really happened on that dark night two years ago.

I only heard about Acid a couple of days ago, but already I'm really excited about it. I've seen quite a few bloggers are reading it/talking about it, and it seems to be spreading around pretty quickly.
This sounds like a great, fast-paced edge of your seat thriller, mixed with a bit mystery and maybe even science fiction. The dystopian element to the book also seems like it might give it quite a dark atmosphere.
I just love the sound of this and I can't wait to get my hands on a copy!

What's on your wishlist this week? Let us know in the comments below, or link to your own Wishlist Wednesday post in the Linky :)

I like the sound of this and the dystopian element is just the cherry on the pie. Thanks for bringing this book into the spotlight as I hadn't heard of it before.

My WW can be found on Le Chat de Biobliothèque.

The cover and the synopsis both make ACID sound thrilling and dark. The dystopian element is good too!
