Can't Wait Wednesday #194

 

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 shadows and flames, Primals will fall…
And from the blood and ash, new gods will rise.

In the thrilling penultimate chapter of the viral BLOOD AND ASH series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout, Poppy and Casteel face their most perilous challenges yet as old enemies rise and ancient powers stir from their slumber.

Bound by love but driven by destiny, they must navigate a world on the brink of
devastation—where every choice has deadly consequences. With their bond tested and their future hanging in the balance, the fate of the realm rests on the strength of their hearts and the power of the Deminyen.

I am still so incredibly behind in this series! I think I am now up to needing to read the second book of the prequel series which I was reading with this series mixed in between. So yeah, my brain is scrambled! Lol. But definitely can't wait to have this one in my hands to read eventually!

GENRE: Fantasy Romance
RELEASE DATE: June 10, 2025

The twelfth book in the New York Times best-selling Villains series goes down the rabbit hole to explore how Disney’s maddest villain—the Queen of Hearts—lost her head.

The Queen of Hearts has always ruled Wonderland. “A place for everything, and everything in its place” was her motto. All was right and proper in her kingdom, until that wretched god Hades and those Odd Sisters broke the worlds. Now new and strange creatures crowd Wonderland and none of them understand that everything must be done her way. Even her precious roses are no longer red.

But Wonderland is still her kingdom to rule. She holds all the cards. The Queen of Hearts will put everything back in its proper place. The only way to do so is to send a message. Heads. Will. Roll.

She decides to throw a party to bring this about. Croquet, card games, executions. Everyone in Wonderland receives an invitation. But there is one guest the queen does not expect. A girl named Alice.

Another series I am greatly behind in! I am three books behind before this one releases, so maaaaybe I can squeeze one more in before this comes out...but doubtful! Lol.
