Waiting on Wednesday (23)

WoW is hosted by Jill of Breaking the Spine!


Nomansland by Lesley Hauge (Henry Holt BFYR, 6/22/10)
Sometime in the future, a lonely, windswept island is populated solely by women. Among these women is a group of teenaged Trackers—expert equestrians and archers—whose job is to protect their shores from the enemy. The enemy, they’ve been told, is men. When these girls come upon a partially buried home from the distant past, they are fascinated by the strange objects—high-heeled shoes, teen magazines, make-up—found there. What are they to make of these mysterious things? And what does it mean for their strict society where friendship is forbidden and rules must be obeyed—at all costs?

This book sounds so INTENSE. I love the cover art and the plot summary is simply amazing - I can't wait to read it!!
