“Waiting
On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that
spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating. Basically books that are not yet out that we
are dying to get our hands on. This
week’s pick is:
A Crown of Wishes (Star-Touched Queen #2) by
Roshani Chokshi
Out: 3/28
From Goodreads:
The
new novel follows Gauri, the younger sister of the titular Star-Touched Queen,
on her harrowing quest for freedom.
When
Gauri, the princess of Bharata, is captured by her kingdom’s rivals she can
only find help in Vikram, the cunning prince of an enemy kingdom. Unsatisfied with royal life, Vikram offers
Gauri a chance to win back her kingdom in exchange for her battle prowess. They set aside their difference and team up
to compete in the Tournament of Wishes, wherein the Lord of Wealth promises a
wish to the victor. Every which way they
turn new trials will test their wit and strength. But what Gauri and Vikram soon discover is
that there’s nothing more dangerous than what they most desire.
Why I’m Waiting:
This is a companion book to The Star-Touched Queen (review) and something I heard about when the first book came out
following the life of a character we only got a small piece of which interested
me because she seemed so interesting and had clearly had a lot of stories so
seeing she gets her own story is even better!

I know I am so happy it's keeping the same theme cover, AKA beautiful, as the first book, I'm picky that way!
DeleteI've still not read the first book in this series, but I hope to before the second is released. The covers are so pretty! Thanks for sharing.
