Waiting On Wednesday #5
Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly Meme, hosted at Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Title: The Savage Blue
Author: Zoraida Cordova
Synopsis: Sequel to The Viscous Deep. In the quest for the Sea Throne, Tristan has already watched one good friend die. Now he must lead the rest on a dangerous voyage to the infamous port of Tortuga Cove in search of the trident that will make him king. But while Tristan chases his destiny, the dark forces raging against him are getting stronger and the sea witch of his nightmares is getting closer. Battling pirates, sea dragons and mutant creatures of the deep, Tristan needs his friends' support. But they each have their secrets, and a betrayal will force Tristan to choose between loyalty and ambition, friendship and love. In the race for a throne, all's fair in the savage blue.
Release Date: January 1, 2013
My Thoughts: I just recently read The Viscous Deep and I loved it (Review to come). I cannot wait for the sequel to come out, Tristan's story is probably the best mermaid/merman story that I have read in a while. I am totally obsessed with mermaids/mermen right now. I mean there have been some great ones coming out *cough* Of Poseidon, The Viscous Deep *cough*. The next mermaid book that I have on my list is Tempest Rising by Tracy Deebs! Can't wait!
Seriously, this is going to be a preorder. :)

Title: Bitter Blood
Author: Rachel Caine
Release: November 6, 2012
This week the book that I am waiting very impatiently for, I'm never very patient for books, has to be Bitter Blood by Rachel Caine. This book, I swear, has been saved in my Amazon cart since I finished Black Dawn. Rachel Caine is one of my favorite authors and I can't wait until the next installment to this series is out. Now all that I have to do is find a way to pay for it.... hmmm... hello lawn, meet your mower! Yay! :)

her friends have to figure out how to keep the peace without ending up
on the nightly news…or worse - From Goodreads

Waiting On Wednesday #1
Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly Meme, hosted at Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This is my first ever Meme that I have done. I decided to try one and this one interested me. :)
The book that I am very impatiently waiting on is City Of Lost Souls By Cassandra Clare. I know it comes out in a few days, but this is killing me. :(
Title: City Of Lost Souls
Author: Cassandra Clare
Publication Date: May 8, 2012
Synopsis: The demon Lilith has been destroyed and Jace has been freed from her captivity. But when the Shadowhunters arrive to rescue him, they find only blood and broken glass. Not only is the boy Clary loves missing–but so is the boy she hates, Sebastian, the son of her father Valentine: a son determined to succeed where their father failed, and bring the Shadowhunters to their knees.
No magic the Clave can summon can locate either boy, but Jace cannot stay away—not from Clary. When they meet again Clary discovers the horror Lilith’s dying magic has wrought—Jace is no longer the boy she loved. He and Sebastian are now bound to each other, and Jace has become what he most feared: a true servant of Valentine’s evil. The Clave is determined to destroy Sebastian, but there is no way to harm one boy without destroying the other. Will the Shadowhunters hesitate to kill one of their own?
Only a small band of Clary and Jace’s friends and family believe that Jace can still be saved — and that the fate of the Shadowhunters’ future may hinge on that salvation. They must defy the Clave and strike out on their own. Alec, Magnus, Simon and Isabelle must work together to save Jace: bargaining with the sinister Faerie Queen, contemplating deals with demons, and turning at last to the Iron Sisters, the reclusive and merciless weapons makers for the Shadowhunters, who tell them that no weapon on this earth can sever the bond between Sebastian and Jace. Their only chance of cutting Jace free is to challenge Heaven and Hell — a risk that could claim any, or all, of their lives.
And they must do it without Clary. For Clary has gone into the heart of darkness, to play a dangerous game utterly alone. The price of losing the game is not just her own life, but Jace’s soul. She’s willing to do anything for Jace, but can she even still trust him? Or is he truly lost? What price is too high to pay, even for love?
Darkness threatens to claim the Shadowhunters in the harrowing fifth book of the Mortal Instruments series. - From GoodReads
So I have this book preordered and I am thinking that I can hardly wait for this week to be over, because then I can have this book and all will be well. This book has been on my wishlist since Cassandra announced it and it has been preordered since December... Sad, right? Yes.
So enough about me... What book are you waiting on? :)
