Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking The Spine, where you can spotlight an upcoming release that you're eagerly anticipating!
This week I'm waiting on:
Deep Blue (Waterfire Saga #1) by Jennifer Donnelly
Releases on: May 6th, 2014 Add it to Goodreads!
FROM GOODREADS: The first in a series of four epic tales in the depths of the ocean, where six mermaids seek to protect and save their hidden world.
Deep in the ocean, in a world not so different from our own, live the merpeople. Their communities are spread throughout the oceans, seas, and freshwaters all over the globe.
When Serafina, a mermaid of the Mediterranean Sea, awakens on the morning of her betrothal, her biggest worry should be winning the love of handsome Prince Mahdi. And yet Sera finds herself haunted by strange dreams that foretell the return of an ancient evil. Her dark premonitions are confirmed when an assassin's arrow poisons Sera's mother. Now, Serafina must embark on a quest to find the assassin's master and prevent a war between the Mer nations. Led only by her shadowy dreams, Sera searches for five other mermaid heroines who are scattered across the six seas. Together, they will form an unbreakable bond of sisterhood and uncover a conspiracy that threatens their world's very existence.
Why I'm waiting: Dude. This book sounds epic! Mermaids?! Say whaaat?! Plus it's a Disney-Hyperion book, and I always seem to devour their books!! Simply CANNOT wait to get my hands on this one!!!
What do you think of my choice?
What's your choice for this week's WoW?
Let me know in the comments, and leave me a link to your WoW post, so I can leave some comment love on yours!!
Also, if you followed me, I would love you forever and ever! LET ME LOVE YOU!! *cough* Sorry if that was creepy, but I need MORE book loving friends!! You can never have too many! That's what I always say (or type, in this case!!)
Thanks for visiting Pivot Book Reviews!
Hmmmm, I love that the book seems to focus more on a quest to find other mermaids and to defeat evil than on swooning for a prince! I think I'll end up adding this one to my TBR list even if I'm not very keen on mermaid books!
ReplyDeleteGreat pick, Becca!
I'm not usually one for mermaid stories, but this one sounds pretty good! Plus, it's Disney-Hyperion so it has to be pretty good. Thanks for sharing!
