Waiting on Wednesday 05/15/2013

"Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at “Breaking the Spine”, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. 

This week I am waiting on Dance of the Red Death by Bethany Griffin!

Yes, I realize this book releases on June 11, 2013 by Greenwillow Books!
I decided to do something different with my WOW instead of something months
in advance. ::fingers crossed:: That Greenwillow approves me!
I am happy that this is only a 2 part series instead of a trilogy!

Bethany Griffin continues the journey of Araby Worth in Dance of the Red Death—the sequel to her teen novel Masque of the Red Death.
In Dance of the Red Death, Araby’s world is in shambles—betrayal, death, disease, and evil forces surround her. She has no one to trust. But she finds herself and discovers that she will fight for the people she loves, and for her city.
Her revenge will take place at the menacing masked ball, though it could destroy her and everyone she loves…or it could turn her into a hero.
With a nod to Edgar Allan Poe, Bethany Griffin concludes her tragic and mysterious Red Death series with a heroine that young adult readers will never forget.

Hardcover, 336 pages
Expected publication: June 11th 2013 by Greenwillow Books

    I had this one my WoW a few weeks ago. I CANNOT wait. It also helps that the covers of this series are gorgeous and I can't wait to see them side by side on my shelves. Great pick this week, Shelley!

      Thanks Bekka! I absolutely agree about the covers! Let's hope this second book is as good, or better than the original!

      Thank you! I agree with you in that there are so many great books, and not enough time to read! Makes me want to split myself into two people so that we can finish them all!

    I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. I haven't read the first book, but the series does sound intriguing. And that cover is soooo pretty. It's cool that it is only 2 books instead of a trilogy. Why does everyone take 3 (or more) books to tell a story? Great pick!

      You absolutely must read Masque soon. Maybe do a back to back read when this book comes out! Thanks Christianna!
