Waiting on Wednesday

I hate waiting...
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly blog post by Jill over at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights releases we're eagerly awaiting.

Hailed as “impossible to put down,” the Hex Hall series has both critics and teens cheering. With a winning combination of romance, action, magic and humor, this third volume will leave readers enchanted.

Just as Sophie Mercer has come to accept her extraordinary magical powers as a demon, the Prodigium Council strips them away. Now Sophie is defenseless, alone, and at the mercy of her sworn enemies—the Brannicks, a family of warrior women who hunt down the Prodigium. Or at least that’s what Sophie thinks, until she makes a surprising discovery. The Brannicks know an epic war is coming, and they believe Sophie is the only one powerful enough to stop the world from ending. But without her magic, Sophie isn’t as confident.

Sophie’s bound for one hell of a ride—can she get her powers back before it’s too late?


So can't wait for this one! I was delaying reading Demonglass since everyone says the cliffhanger ending is killing them! So I am going to wait til it's closer to the release date of this one! Haven't even read the cover description yet! So it was mighty hard making this post today, but I did it!!

TITLE: Spell Bound
AUTHOR: Rachel Hawkins
PUBLISHER:
Hyperion Book CH
GENRE:
YA Paranormal
RELEASE DATE:
March 13, 2012


The #1 New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong delivers the novel her fans have been clamoring for: The epic finale of the Otherworld series.

It’s been more than ten years, a dozen installments, and hundreds of thousands of copies since Kelley Armstrong introduced readers to the all-too-real denizens of the Otherworld: witches, werewolves, necromancers, vampires, and half-demons, among others. And it’s all been leading to Thirteen, the final installment, the novel that brings all of these stories to a stunning conclusion.

A war is brewing—the first battle has been waged and Savannah Levine is left standing, albeit battered and bruised. She has rescued her half brother from supernatural medical testing, but he’s fighting to stay alive. The Supernatural Liberation Movement took him hostage, and they have a maniacal plan to expose the supernatural world to the unknowing.

Savannah has called upon her inner energy to summon spells with frightening strength, a strength she never knew she had, as she fights to keep her world from shattering. But it’s more than a matter of supernaturals against one another—both heaven and hell have entered the war; hellhounds, genetically modified werewolves, and all forces of good and evil have joined the fray.

Uniting Savannah with Adam, Paige, Lucas, Jaime, Hope, and other lost-but-not forgotten characters in one epic battle, Thirteen is a grand, crowd-pleasing closer for Armstrong’s legions of fans.


I'm not certain that this is the official cover description. And I wasn't 100% sure this was even the cover art for the US. It might not be, but then again maybe it is! I so can't wait either way! And looking at this cover I know it will be awesome! If you look beneath the star, through the trees are a bunch of shadowy figures! I'm wondering if that means if all the women of the Otherworld will be there with their man and friends in tow!

TITLE: Thirteen
AUTHOR: Kelley Armstrong
PUBLISHER:
Penguin Group USA/Dutton

  15. I am also quite eager for Thirteen. I really love that series. I am less eager for Spell Bound both because I haven't read Demonglass yet and because I wasn't that thrilled by Hex Hall. I hope you enjoy them both.
