“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:
The Language of Thorns: Midnight Tales and Dangerous Magic by Leigh
Bardugo
Out: 9/26
From Goodreads:
Love
speaks in flowers. Truth requires
thorns.
Travel
to a world of dark bargains struck by moonlights, of haunted towns and hungry
woods, of talking beasts and gingerbread golems, where a young mermaid’s voice
can summon deadly storms and where a river might do a lovestruck boy’s bidding
but only for a terrible price.
Inspired
by myth, fairy tale, and folklore, #1 New York Times-bestselling author Leigh
Bardugo has crafted a deliciously atmospheric collection of short stories
filled with betrayals, revenge, sacrifice, and love.
Perfect
for new readers and dedicated fans, these tales will transport you to lands
both familiar and strange—to a fully realized world of dangerous magic that
millions have visited through the novels of the Grishaverse.
This
collection of six short stories includes three brand-new tales, all of them
lavishly illustrated with art that changes with each turn of the page,
culminating in six stunning full-spread illustrations as rich in detail as the
stories themselves.
Why I’m Waiting:
It’s
Leigh Bardugo so of course I want to read it plus it’s going to have
pictures!!!! Need I say more?
