Wishlist Wednesday #1

Wishlist Wednesday #1

Wishlist Wednesday is hosted by Pen to Paper and it is where you talk about one book which is on your wishlist.

My Wishlist Wednesday book is:
Parasite (Parasitology #1) by Mira Grant

A decade in the future, humanity thrives in the absence of sickness and disease.

We owe our good health to a humble parasite - a genetically engineered tapeworm developed by the pioneering SymboGen Corporation. When implanted, the tapeworm protects us from illness, boosts our immune system - even secretes designer drugs. It's been successful beyond the scientists' wildest dreams. Now, years on, almost every human being has a SymboGen tapeworm living within them.

But these parasites are getting restless. They want their own lives...and will do anything to get them.

I've been wanting to read this book for a long time now - well since November 11th 2013 precisely. 

Why I want to read this book?
Because it sounds amazing!!! The concept sounds really interesting and it's so mysterious. It also has an amazing horror factor to it, liking parasites insides your body getting restless and wanting their own lives??? That sounds like trouble and I can't wait to get my hands on this book.

If any of you have read this book, let me know what you thought of it in the comments :)
