“Waiting on Wednesday” is a weekly event hosted by Jill at the Breaking The Spine. It showcases upcoming releases we’re anticipating!
My pick of the week is:
Crooked Kingdom (Six of Crows #2)
By: Leigh Bardugo
Coming: 27 September 2016
Publisher: Orion Children’s Books
Summary:
Kaz Brekker and his crew have just pulled off a heist so daring even they didn’t think they’d survive. But instead of divvying up a fat reward, they’re right back to fighting for their lives. Double-crossed and left crippled by the kidnapping of a valuable team member, the crew is low on resources, allies, and hope. As powerful forces from around the world descend on Ketterdam to root out the secrets of the dangerous drug known as jurda parem, old rivals and new enemies emerge to challenge Kaz’s cunning and test the team’s fragile loyalties. A war will be waged on the city’s dark and twisting streets―a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of magic in the Grisha world.
Why I’m excited:
I loved the Grisha trilogy. I was going to read Six of Crows when I pre-ordered it, but I got behind and decided to wait until Crooked Kingdom came out since it’s just a duology. I can’t wait to jump back into the Grishaverse!
Why I need you to be excited:
It’s another beautiful finale for Leigh Bardugo. It will be grand!
