Waiting on Wednesday March 19th 2014
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating. In my case not so patiently waiting for the new releases, which I lack.
It's almost April. Jeeze I still haven't read January's books yet. Eek I need to get my act together. At least this one is a ways off maybe I'll be ready when it comes out. I love the cover for Winterspell it's beautiful and the synopsis sounds captivating. I honestly can't wait to read the book.
Winterspell
by Claire Legrand
Expected Publication September 30th 2014
(Goodreads)
Synopsis
The clock chimes midnight, a curse breaks, and a girl meets a prince . . . but what follows is not all sweetness and sugarplums.
New York City, 1899. Clara Stole, the mayor's ever-proper daughter, leads a double life. Since her mother's murder, she has secretly trained in self-defense with the mysterious Drosselmeyer.
Then, on Christmas Eve, disaster strikes.
Her home is destroyed, her father abducted--by beings distinctly not human. To find him, Clara journeys to the war-ravaged land of Cane. Her only companion is the dethroned prince Nicholas, bound by a wicked curse. If they're to survive, Clara has no choice but to trust him, but his haunted eyes burn with secrets--and a need she can't define. With the dangerous, seductive faery queen Anise hunting them, Clara soon realizes she won't leave Cane unscathed--if she leaves at all.
Inspired by The Nutcracker, Winterspell is a dark, timeless fairy tale about love and war, longing and loneliness, and a girl who must learn to live without fear.

ReplyDeleteThe girl on the cover seriously looks like Emma Watson. Is this a debut author? I've never heard of her before in the YA niche. The synopsis sounds really good. I think I'll actually be checking this out. Thanks! View my WoW: http://symphofwords.blogspot.com/2014/03/waiting-on-wednesday_19.html
