Can’t-Wait Wednesday, aka Waiting on Wednesday, is a weekly meme originating from Jill at Breaking the Spine and now hosted by Wishful Endings. If you’re interested in participating, stop by Wishful Endings to link up your posts.
To be a Docile is to be kept, body and soul, for the uses of the owner of your contract. To be a Docile is to forget, to disappear, to hide inside your body from the horrors of your service. To be a Docile is to sell yourself to pay your parents’ debts and buy your children’s future.
Elisha Wilder’s family has been ruined by debt, handed down to them from previous generations. His mother never recovered from the Dociline she took during her term as a Docile, so when Elisha decides to try and erase the family’s debt himself, he swears he will never take the drug that took his mother from him. Too bad his contract has been purchased by Alexander Bishop III, whose ultra-rich family is the brains (and money) behind Dociline and the entire Office of Debt Resolution. When Elisha refuses Dociline, Alex refuses to believe that his family’s crowning achievement could have any negative side effects—and is determined to turn Elisha into the perfect Docile without it.
Fascinated by this concept and to see what Szpara has written here. I’ve seen some gushing reviews over this one so very much looking forward to checking it out. Docile is expected March 3rd, 2020 from Tor.com.
Way Too Fantasy

Right? I have to see what it’s all about. 😀
So curious about this one! I’ve been good and haven’t requested it….but it sure is tempting….
I’m super curious myself! I will be digging in next month and I’m looking forward to it!
Yes, the blurb to this one intrigues me! I’ll probably be checking it out at some point 🙂
It just looks different and I also like the author so I have to check it out. 🙂
I also like the sound of this one – it gives me sinister vibes.

One of my friends has reviewed this one and has some really interesting things to say about this one (she didn’t like it) but I confess that only made me me curious so I’m really looking forward to it! LOL
