"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted by Jill from Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
From New York Times bestselling author Patrick Carman, a teen fantasy-adventure of epic proportions. In 2051, some teens have a “pulse,” the power to move objects with their minds. Compulsively readable, with thrilling action scenes and a tender love story.
The year is 2051, and the world is still recognizable. With the help of her mysterious classmate Dylan Gilmore, Faith Daniels discovers that she can move objects with her mind. This telekinetic ability is called a “pulse,” and Dylan has the talent, too.
In riveting action scenes, Faith demonstrates her ability to use her pulse against a group of telekinesis masters so powerful they will flatten their enemies by uprooting street lights, moving boulders, and changing the course of a hurtling hammer so that it becomes a deadly weapon. But even with great talent, the mind—and the heart—can be difficult to control. If Faith wants to join forces with Dylan and save the world, she’ll have to harness the power of both.
The cover looks a lot like Insurgent's. That's a good sign I hope. I have high hopes for this one!

I've actually seen this on someone elses Waiting on Wednesday post. It sound pretty intriguing. I already added it to my TBR-list, though. Great pick!

And it's the same publisher - Katherine Tegen! I go to hear Patrick talk about it himself and what idea sparked the whole book (along with a Harper sales person) at ALA and it sounds really intriguing. Good choice!
