"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This is my first week to include a Waiting on Wednesday post (at least as far as I can remember), but I thought that it might be a fun addition to the blog here and there, especially since I am really excited about a release next week!
The Book I'm eagerly awaiting is A Wicked Thing by Rhiannon Thomas
Rhiannon Thomas's dazzling debut novel is a spellbinding reimagining of Sleeping Beauty and what happens after happily ever after.
One hundred years after falling asleep, Princess Aurora wakes up to the kiss of a handsome prince and a broken kingdom that has been dreaming of her return. All the books say that she should be living happily ever after. But as Aurora understands all too well, the truth is nothing like the fairy tale.
Her family is long dead. Her "true love" is a kind stranger. And her whole life has been planned out by political foes while she slept.
As Aurora struggles to make sense of her new world, she begins to fear that the curse has left its mark on her, a fiery and dangerous thing that might be as wicked as the witch who once ensnared her. With her wedding day drawing near, Aurora must make the ultimate decision on how to save her kingdom: marry the prince or run.
Rhiannon Thomas weaves together vivid scenes of action, romance, and gorgeous gowns to reveal a richly imagined world … and Sleeping Beauty as she’s never been seen before.
What book are you waiting on?
I am so looking forward to this book. It sounds awesome and I can hardly wait for it. I hope it's really good and that you get it soon. I'm also really excited for The Sin Eater's Daughter to be released next week, too.
ReplyDeleteGreat choice. I've not read anything by this author before but I've been seeing this one around a lot so it must be pretty good. Thank you for sharing and have a great week! :)
