Waiting on Wednesday (2)

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine, where readers get the chance to spotlight those upcoming releases that we are eager to get.

In this follow-up to Anna Dressed in Blood, Cas begins seeing Anna everywhere: sometimes when he’s asleep, and sometimes in waking nightmares. But something is very wrong. These aren’t just daydreams. Anna seems tortured, torn apart in new and ever more gruesome ways every time she appears. 

Cas doesn’t know what happened to Anna when she disappeared into Hell, but he knows she doesn’t deserve whatever is happening to her now. Anna saved Cas more than once, and it’s time for him to return the favor.


I really can't wait to read this book! I loved Anna Dressed in Blood. I thought the writing was phenomenal. The characters I just loved. I loved Cas, Anna, and Cas's mom, I loved every single character in this book. So if you have not read this book.... PLEASE read it. It is so suspenseful, full of action, and a little bot of romance. So I can not wait for this book to come out.

Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare
Released: December 6, 2011
Publisher: Margaret. K McElderry Books

In the magical underworld of Victorian London, Tessa Gray has at last found safety with the Shadowhunters. But that safety proves fleeting when rogue forces in the Clave plot to see her protector, Charlotte, replaced as head of the Institute. If Charlotte loses her position, Tessa will be out on the street and easy prey for the mysterious Magister, who wants to use Tessa's powers for his own dark ends.

With the help of the handsome, self-destructive Will and the fiercely devoted Jem, Tessa discovers that the Magister's war on the Shadowhunters is deeply personal. He blames them for a long-ago tragedy that shattered his life. To unravel the secrets of the past, the trio journeys from mist-shrouded Yorkshire to a manor house that holds untold horrors, from the slums of London to an enchanted ballroom where Tessa discovers that the truth of her parentage is more sinister than she had imagined. When they encounter a clockwork demon bearing a warning for Will, they realize that the Magister himself knows their every move and that one of their own has betrayed them.

Tessa finds her heart drawn more and more to Jem, though her longing for Will, despite his dark moods, continues to unsettle her. But something is changing in Will; the wall he has built around himself is crumbling. Could finding the Magister free Will from his secrets and give Tessa the answers about who she is and what she was born to do?

As their dangerous search for the Magister and the truth leads the friends into peril, Tessa learns that when love and lies are mixed, they can corrupt even the purest heart.

So as you know I loved Clockwork Angel. That book was one of my favorites. And I can not wait until this book comes out, I am so excited and anxious to read it! 

Daughter of Smoke and Bone - Book Review

Daughter of Smoke & Bone by Laini Taylor


Released: September 27, 2011
Publisher: Little, Brown & Company
Pages: 420
Rate: 4.5/5


Around the world, black handprints are appearing on doorways, scorched there by winged strangers who have crept through a slit in the sky. 

In a dark and dusty shop, a devil's supply of human teeth grown dangerously low. 

And in the tangled lanes of Prague, a young art student is about to be caught up in a brutal otherwordly war. 

Meet Karou. She fills her sketchbooks with monsters that may or may not be real; she's prone to disappearing on mysterious "errands"; she speaks many languages--not all of them human; and her bright blue hair actually grows out of her head that color. Who is she? That is the question that haunts her, and she's about to find out. 

When one of the strangers--beautiful, haunted Akiva--fixes his fire-colored eyes on her in an alley in Marrakesh, the result is blood and starlight, secrets unveiled, and a star-crossed love whose roots drink deep of a violent past. But will Karou live to regret learning the truth about herself?


My Review:

This book has been on my shelf for quite sometime. A lot of reviews have loved this book. SO i finally got to read it. 

There were so many emotions going on in my head when I was reading this book. At first wen I started it, I had no clue what was going on. But then I kept reading, then I started to understand what was going on in the plot line. Taylor did a phenomenal job. I just really loved the book. 

Karou was such a kick A character, I loved her. She didn't let people get away . She was a really strong and independent character. So if you haven't read this bool, please put it at the top of your to be read pile. It is so good. 

Happy reading!

" Zuzanna gave Karou the suspicious rendition of the eyebrow arch. 'I don't know which you mean,' Karou lied calmly. 'I have lots of tattoos.' To demonstrate she didn't flash true or story, or the serpents coiled around her ankle, or any of her other concealed works of art.
