Waiting On Wednesday (Bewitching)
Wednesday, August 17, 2011
Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. Every Wednesday participants choose a book that they are "waiting on" or hasn't been released yet. This week I'm waiting for:
Publisher: HarperTeen
Publication Date: March 14, 2012
Pages: 304
PreOrder It: Amazon
I love Alex Flinn's writing. Every book is fantastic and who doesn't love a fairy tale retelling. I need to get my hands on Cloaked, but I'll definitely need to find a way to get this one as well. It sounds amazing and it is a full series this time. Awesome! I can't wait until March!Kendra Hilferty, the witch who curses Kyle Kingsbury in Beastly, tells about her immortal existence-how she discovered she was a witch and the various ways she has used her powers to help people throughout the centuries. (Unfortunately her attempts have often backfired.) As it turns out, Kendra has actually had a hand in "Hansel and Gretel," "The Princess and the Pea," and "The Little Mermaid"-but these are not the fairy tales you think you know! Kendra's reminiscences are wrapped around a real-time version of "Cinderella," except the "ugly" stepsister is the good guy. With dark twists, hilarious turns, and unexpected endings, Bewitching is a contemporary read for fairy-tale lovers, fantasy fans, and anyone looking for more Alex Flinn.--Goodreads
