Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings,
to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet
to read. It's
based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine.
In the faux-documentary style of The Blair Witch Project comes the campfire story of a missing girl, a vengeful ghost, and the girl who is determined to find her sister--at all costs.
Once a year, the path appears in the forest and Lucy Gallows beckons. Who is brave enough to find her--and who won't make it out of the woods?
It's been exactly one year since Sara's sister, Becca, disappeared, and high school life has far from settled back to normal. With her sister gone, Sara doesn't know whether her former friends no longer like her...or are scared of her, and the days of eating alone at lunch have started to blend together. When a mysterious text message invites Sara and her estranged friends to "play the game" and find local ghost legend Lucy Gallows, Sara is sure this is the only way to find Becca--before she's lost forever. And even though she's hardly spoken with them for a year, Sara finds herself deep in the darkness of the forest, her friends--and their cameras--following her down the path. Together, they will have to draw on all of their strengths to survive. The road is rarely forgiving, and no one will be the same on the other side.
This one sounds creepy good! I LOOOOVE a good ghostly story and this one sounds right up my alley! Perhaps even potential Spooktacular Giveaway worthy! I'll have to read and see!!
TITLE: Rules for Vanishing
AUTHOR: Kate Alice Marshall
PUBLISHER: Viking Books for Young Readers
GENRE: YA Horror
RELEASE DATE: September 24, 2019
An ex-con tracks down the men who have kidnapped her niece in this gritty and visceral thriller.Killian Delaney has a skewed moral compass, a high threshold for pain, and has just been released from prison to discover that someone has taken her niece.
Killian does not hesitate. Loyalty is the most important thing in her life, and when she gets a call from her sister saying that her daughter is missing, Killian immediately begins hunting down the men responsible.
She quickly discovers her niece was involved with a notorious biker gang who are engaged in everything from drugs to human trafficking. And to make it worse, the man who sent Killian to jail, the one she nearly beat to death, is at the center of it all.
To save her niece, she'll need a plan. A smart, quick, and efficient one. Because she's going to do it right this time. She'll burn them to the ground.
I still have quite a few of Kate's books on my TBR pile, but I've read her YA series and another adult series of hers, so I am positive that I am going to love her thrillers too! This one is a new book--I think, at least--so I [hopefully] won't have to play catch up--just being bad by reading the new before the old! Lol!

Both of these sound awesome. Thanks for sharing them!
ReplyDeleteI loved the idea behind the Blair Witch Project, but couldn't watch it because the film style made me sick to my stomach with all the jerkiness. So I think a book like that would be great! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Wednesday post
Both sound a little scary so I may pass on them! Hope you enjoy them once you read them.

Rules for Vanishing sounds awesome! I just went to add this to my to-read list on Goodreads, thanks for the introduction. It had me at "in the faux-documentary style of The Blair Witch Project" :D

Rules for Vanishing sounds perfectly creepy for the halloween season.
ReplyDeleteRules of Vanishing sounds so perfect for this fall. I do love a good ghost story. Seven Crows sounds intense and emotional. Another good choice! I hope you both love these. Have a great weekend!
