Waiting on Wednesday
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.
I've not read a lot of historical fiction but this one sounds like a must. Plus the cover is intriguing.
My choice this week is
These Shallow Graves
by Jennifer Donnelly
Expected Publication - October 27th 2015
Add it to Goodreads
Synopsis
Set in gilded age New York, These Shallow Graves follows the story of Josephine Montfort, an American aristocrat. Jo lives a life of old-money ease. Not much is expected of her other than to look good and marry well. But when her father dies due to an accidental gunshot, the gilding on Jo’s world starts to tarnish. With the help of a handsome and brash reporter, and a young medical student who moonlights in the city morgue, Jo uncovers the truth behind her father’s death and learns that if you’re going to bury the past, you’d better bury it deep.

I love Jennifer Donnelly! Her Waterfire Saga is really good. I've not really heard much about this book, but I might check it out, since it's Donnelly! I hope you enjoy this book when you read it!

This sounds SO GOOD and I love Jennifer Donnelly! I'm so jealous of everyone who got this at BEA. I missed it somehow. Great pick, I can't wait to read it!
