“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:
Dorothy Must Die Stories Vol. 2 by Danielle Paige
Out: 2/16
From Goodreads:
A collection of three prequel novellas to the New York Times
bestselling Dorothy Must Die series!
Follow Dorothy’s iconic companions from the beloved classic
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz as each of their gifts becomes key to the downfall
of Oz. After Dorothy Gale wished her way
home and long before Amy Gumm found herself in Oz, Dorothy’s friends left the
Road of Yellow Brick to go their separate ways.
But in a place like Oz, where magic and temptation lurk, the gifts from
the Wizard begin to take on a life of their own. The Tin Woodman becomes twisted with
longing. The Scarecrow develops a taste
for plotting. And doubt consumes the
Cowardly Lion.
Kiss the land where troubles melt like lemon drops
good-bye. Here there’s danger around
every corner, and magical shoes won’t be able to save you.
Why I’m Waiting:
I
enjoyed the first two books and the first novella bind up and look forward to
continuing the series and that includes the novellas and seeing how the
characters I knew from TV turned into the creatures of nightmares when Amy
comes to town.
