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:
Dangerous Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
Releases on: May 20th, 2014 Add it to Goodreads!
From Goodreads: A new series returns to the world of Beautiful Creatures. Some loves are cursed...others are dangerous.
Ridley Duchannes will be the first to tell you that she's a bad girl. She's Dark. She's a Siren. You can never trust her, or even yourself when she's around. Lucky for her, Wesley "Link" Lincoln can never seem to remember that; quarter Incubus or not, his heart is Mortal when it comes to Ridley. When Link heads to New York City to start a music career, Ridley goes along for the ride- and she has her own reasons. As if leaving small-town Gatlin for the big city, trying to form a band, and surviving life with a partially reformed Siren isn't hard enough already, Link soon learns he has a price on his head that no Caster or Mortal can ever pay.
Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, the #1 New York Times bestselling coauthors of Beautiful Creatures, are back and casting another magical spell. Their signature mixture of mystery, suspense, and romance, along with a dash of fun and danger, will pull fans in and leave them begging for more.
Why I'm waiting: Uh, HELLO?! It's a spin off of Beautiful Creatures, which I'll admit I tried to read forever ago and couldn't get into, but I recently read them all and loved them this time around. My tastes are always changing! I can't wait to read more about Ridley and Link, and I really hope we will see other characters make appearances too! It sounds awesome!!
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!
I stopped reading this series, but I am thinking about picking it back up!

I mean, I really disliked the third book, BUT I liked the new characters that were introduced, and I had to know what happened. I'm excited to read about Ridley and Link though!
DeleteHmmm, I must confess I haven't read any of the books or even felt like reading them... but yay for you getting more books of a series you loved! ;)
ReplyDeleteI think the reason I tried to read them again was because I watched the movie and unlike most people, I actually enjoyed it. But I wanted to see what everyone was complaining about the book not matching the movie much and then I just got sucked in!
DeleteI saw the trailer of the movie with the bf and he asked me "is this one of your books?" and I was "no, these I haven't read". He considers me an expert on YA books apparently :P
DeleteHahaha that's how everyone is with me, it seems!!
DeleteI never read the final book to Beautiful Creatures. The previous one was so off for me, I just never ended up buying it. Maybe I'll give it another chance.
ReplyDeleteIn a completely unrelated note, I nominated you for this thing called a Liebster Award. Details here: http://thebrokebookgirls.blogspot.com/2014/03/liebster-award.html
I know. The third one was weird, but I had to know what happened next! Lol. Thanks for nominating me, Lindsay! Do I get cookies as my award?! ;)
DeleteI'm looking forward to this one too. I listened to the Beautiful Creatures books on audio, so I'll probably continue that with this new series.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I'm glad you're looking forward to them too, Jenna!
DeleteOh this is a great choice! I read the first in the series and loved it! But I haven't picked up the others yet, mostly because I'm trying to not buy too many books right now. But I really hope to finish the series!

I know exactly what you mean about not buying books! I have too many that I need to read!! I hope you get to finish the series soon though! It's great! :)
DeleteYES. I loved Beautiful creatures (admittedly it took a while for me to get into it too), but now I can't wait for this one! More Link please! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not the only one who seemed to have a snag on getting into it. I think it was mostly because I'm not used to reading books from guy's POVs. I love Link!! I hope it's as good (or if not, better) as the others!
DeleteGood pick! I am excited to read this one! I really liked Ridley and I'm interested in seeing how they spin her story.

I am too! I want to get inside her head so bad! I'm excited to see where they take this new series! I'm sure it will be awesome!
DeleteI actually didn't hear about the Beautiful Creatures books until the movie came out - which I actually really enjoyed. Still haven't read the books yet, but I think I need a trip to the library soon...
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the movie as well! It differs a lot from the book, but I read the book after I watched the movie so I didn't really mind. I still like the movie! I'm glad I'm not the only black sheep that liked it! Haha! Go to the library, Amanda! Now, now, now! :)
DeleteNice! Seeing a lot of this one around lately! Hope you enjoy it as well!
ReplyDeleteHere's my WoW
Have a GREAT day!

Thanks Jessica! :)
DeleteI love, love Link's and Ridley's relationship! As much as this series didn't end so well for me, I'm looking forward to reading these books again.
ReplyDeleteMe too! I know, I was kind of mehh about how it ended, but I'm really looking forward to this new spin off!!
