Waiting on Wednesday: Blue Lily, Lily Blue by Maggie Stiefvater
Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, which spotlights upcoming releases we are eagerly anticipating.
(Coming October 2014)
The third installment in the mesmerizing series from the irrepressible, #1 NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Maggie Stiefvater.
There is danger in dreaming. But there is even more danger in waking up.
Blue
Sargent has found things. For the first time in her life, she has
friends she can trust, a group to which she can belong. The Raven Boys
have taken her in as one of their own. Their problems have become hers,
and her problems have become theirs.
The trick with found things though, is how easily they can be lost.
Friends can betray.
Mothers can disappear.
Visions can mislead.
Certainties can unravel.
I can't wait for this book! Not only because Maggie is one of my favorite authors, but also because this is also a pretty fantastic series. There's a little something for everyone: fun and interesting characters, fantasy and adventure, dead Welsh kings, all wrapped up in a modern setting.
And if you haven't read anything by her yet, this is a good series to start out with.
What are you waiting on?

Waiting on Wednesday: The Orphan Queen by Jodi Meadows
Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, which spotlights upcoming releases we are eagerly anticipating.
(Coming March 2015)
Wilhelmina has a hundred identities.
She is a princess.
When the Indigo Kingdom conquered her homeland, Wilhelmina and other
orphaned children of nobility were taken to Skyvale, the Indigo
Kingdom’s capital. Ten years later, they are the Ospreys, experts at
stealth and theft. With them, Wilhelmina means to take back her throne.
She is a spy.
Wil and her best friend, Melanie, infiltrate Skyvale Palace to study
their foes. They assume the identities of nobles from a wraith-fallen
kingdom, but enemies fill the palace, and Melanie’s behavior grows
suspicious. With Osprey missions becoming increasingly dangerous and
their leader more unstable, Wil can’t trust anyone.
She is a threat.
Wraith is the toxic by-product of magic, and for a century using magic
has been forbidden. Still the wraith pours across the continent,
reshaping the land and animals into fresh horrors. Soon it will reach
the Indigo Kingdom. Wilhelmina’s magic might be the key to stopping the
wraith, but if the vigilante Black Knife discovers Wil’s magic, she will
vanish like all the others
Jodi Meadows introduces a vivid new
fantasy full of intrigue, romance, dangerous magic, and one girl’s
battle to reclaim her place in the world.
I love the cover for this book in Jodi's new series and the description. It sounds so intriguing and fresh, I can't wait to delve into the new world.
