Anyway, here's my WoW post for this week!
Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.
Book: The False Princess by Eilis O'Neal
Release Date: January 25th 2011
Summary (From Goodreads):
Princess and heir to the throne of Thorvaldor, Nalia knows her role in life. But everything changes when she learns, just after her sixteenth birthday, that she is a false princess–a stand-in for the real Nalia, who has been hidden away for her protection. Cast out with little more than the clothes on her back, the girl now called Sinda must leave behind the city, her best friend, Kiernan, and the only life she’s ever known.
While struggling with her new peasant life, Sinda discovers that magic runs through her veins–long-suppressed, dangerous magic that she must learn to control. Returning to the city to seek answers, she instead uncovers a secret that could change the course of Thorvaldor’s history forever.
Book: Deadly Little Games (Touch, #3) by Laurie Faria Stolarz
Release Date: December 27th 2010
Summary (From Goodreads):
Camelia and Ben have discovered a powerful bond: They both possess the power of psychometry, the ability to sense things through touch. For Ben, the gift is a frightening liability. When he senses a strong threat or betrayal, he risks losing control and hurting people. Camelia's gift is more mysterious. When she works with clay, her hands sculpt messages her mind doesn't yet comprehend.
Before either teen has a chance to fully grasp these abilities, an unresolved family tragedy resurfaces in Camelia's life, irrevocably changing everything she cares about...
The first book in the Touch series is a very good read, and hopefully I can read the second book before the third one comes out! I am so excited. I love Ben's character!
Other books to look forward to (though they've been released, I'm dying to get my hands on them and read!):
Beautiful Malice by Rebecca James
The September Sisters by Jillian Cantor
