Can't Wait Wednesday (182)


Can't Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings to spotlight highly anticipated books.  It is based on the Waiting on Wednesday meme which used to be hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.



FROM GOODREADS: Prince and his fairy courtiers are staggeringly beautiful, unrelentingly cruel, and exhausted by the tedium of the centuries―until they meet foster-siblings Josh and Ksenia. Drawn in by their vivid emotions, undying love for each other, and passion for life, Prince will stop at nothing to possess them.

First seduced and then entrapped by the fairies, Josh and Ksenia learn that the fairies' otherworldly gifts come at a terrible price―and they must risk everything in order to reclaim their freedom.

WHY I CAN'T WAIT: It's Halloween so of course I have to feature a creepy cover.  I like the sounds of this (and I'm not gonna lie, a MC named Prince - I could get used to that).  Tor also is one of my favorite publishers so there's that.  

WHAT BOOK CAN'T YOU WAIT FOR THIS WEEK????

    Never Contented Things sounds good. I have several can't-wait books, but the next one due out is Audrey Driscoll's She Who Comes Forth. Audrey is a unique author with kind of an old-fashioned, meaty vibe to her prose.

      Yep, I don't know that I could deal with a dog named Prince. My in-laws have one and it just doesn't seem right.

      I don't have the best luck with fairy books but it helps when they are evil.

    I like fairy books, but I don't like them creepy. I hope you enjoy it. I like most of the cover, but it looks like something is written on her gown. I think it would be prettier if it wasn't there.

      I'm the exact opposite - the creepier the better.

    Yes, that is a creepy cover! But creepy in a beautiful way. I'm not sure if it really matches the book description, but gotta love it anyway!

    This is completely new to me, Barb! I hope you love it. Tor hates me so I never can get any arcs from them and don't get to as many of their books as I would like.
