"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event hosted  by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.  Find out how you can participate HERE!

My next eagerly anticipated book is:

Publication Date:  November 6, 2012
Genre:  YA Fantasy
Available for pre-order from:  Amazon  and Barnes & Noble


In this stunning sequel to the highly acclaimed "Daughter of Smoke and Bone," Karou must come to terms with who and what she is, and how far she'll go to avenge her people. Filled with heartbreak and beauty, mysteries and secrets, new characters and old favorites, Days of Blood and Starlight brings the richness, color and intensity of the first book to a brand new canvas.

I very recently finished reading Daughter of Smoke and Bone and fell in love with the characters as well as the author's writing.  I am very much looking forward to this sequel!

What's your "waiting on" pick this week?

One Less Warlock by Judith Post

By
One Less Warlock by Judith Post My rating: 4 of 5 stars I think it's hard in a short story to create a unique setting, characters, etc., and still get some sort of story line in. In One Less Warlock, Judith did an excellent job of molding the story in such a way that we got a taste of a distinct world and character personalities, and a complete story to go with it. In this short story Judith was able to pack in witches, vampires, a sexy Were, succubus, voodoo, murder, and mystery, all in only about 20 pages. Pretty amazing. I enjoyed the story and Babet, the main character, and am looking forward to more of her in the future. View all my reviews
