Friday Finds and New Reads

This is where I talk about new books that really stand out to me or sound unique, and what new books I have to read or will be getting soon.

This week I have some pretty interesting finds for you. First up we have Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes:

  

Summary: Sixteen-year-old Cleo has grown up in luxury, the royal heiress to a prosperous kingdom. But beneath her nation’s seemingly peaceful surface lies dangerous unrest. Whispers of war are growing ever louder—intensified by a murderous incident for which Cleo’s betrothed, Aron, is accused.

Amidst the ongoing intrigue, Cleo has a more desperate mission. She defies her father’s orders and sets off on a secret and perilous journey into a neighboring country, seeking a magic long thought to be mythical. If it’s real, it could be the cure that heals her ailing sister. If it’s only legend, Cleo will be stranded in a kingdom that has just declared war on her own. This sensational series debut melds intricate storylines with unforgettable characters and vibrantly imagined magic.

 Not only is this cover intriguing with a sort of video gameish look, but so is the summary. A tough girl in a world of fantasy and magic, who wouldn't want to read it? It's still months away from coming out, but I'm so excited for this.

And next we have The Dark Light by Sarah Walsh:

:Summary: Mysterious lights have flickered above Crownsville for as long as Mia can remember. And as far as she’s concerned, that’s about the only interesting thing to happen in her small town.

That is, until Sol arrives. Mia’s not one to fall for just any guy, but she can’t get intense Sol—or the brilliant tattoo on his back—out of her mind.

Then Mia’s brother goes missing, and Mia’s convinced that Sol knows more than he’s sharing. But getting closer to Sol means reevaluating everything she once believed to be true. Because Sol’s not who Mia thought he was—and neither is she.

Even with this summary there's so many questions about what this will be about and I don't know about you, but I want to know more!
