Waiting on Wednesday: Circus Galacticus

Circus Galacticus by Deva Fagan

Release Date: November 15, 2011

Trix can deal with being an orphan charity case at a snotty boarding school. She can hold her own when everyone else tells her not to dream big dreams. She can even fight back against the mysterious stranger in a silver mask who tries to steal the meteorite her parents trusted her to protect.

But her life is about to change forever. The Circus Galacticus has come to town, bringing acts to amaze, delight, and terrify. And now the dazzling but enigmatic young Ringmaster has offered Trix the chance to be a part of it.
Soon Trix discovers an entire universe full of deadly enemies and potential friends, not to mention space leeches, ancient alien artifacts, and exploding chocolate desserts. And she just might unravel the secrets of her own past—if she can survive long enough

-I'm not certain if this is YA or MG. I can definitely feel myself pulling away from MG but regardless of age group this book sounds like it will be a wild ride! Plus I really really liked The Magical Misadventures of Prunella Bogthistle so I'm happily anticipating picking up another book by Deva Fagan :)

I'm a hopeless blogger right now and will be until November 1. Anyone else struggling through senior classes/college apps? What book(s) are you waiting on this week? Enjoying the random fall weather (if you have it)?

What does MG stand for? (oh, Middle Grade?)

Good luck, good luck with classes and college apps -- hopefully you can sneak a book in now and then!
I was a little worried about liking this book, it looks more like a middle grade than a young adult but the idea of a circus set in space was impossible to resist and while it definitely had its flaws, I'm happy I read it. I would probably even read more of the world if I could.
