"Waiting on" Wednesday


"Waiting on" Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.



This week's selection is:


THE TREACHERY OF BEAUTIFUL THINGS
By: Ruth Frances Long
Published By: Dial Books
Release Date: Aug. 16, 2012
Preorder the Book: Amazon


Goodreads Summary: A darkly compelling mix of romance, fairy tale, and suspense from a new voice in teen fiction

The trees swallowed her brother whole, and Jenny was there to see it. Now seventeen, she revisits the woods where Tom was taken, resolving to say good-bye at last. Instead, she's lured into the trees, where she finds strange and dangerous creatures who seem to consider her the threat. Among them is Jack, mercurial and magnetic, with secrets of his own. Determined to find her brother, with or without Jack's help, Jenny struggles to navigate a faerie world where stunning beauty masks some of the most treacherous evils, and she's faced with a choice between salvation or sacrifice--and not just her own.




Why it's wanted:

I would read this book for the cover alone. But the premise also sounds new and exciting, and I'm curious to see how everything plays out.

  1. I agree whole-heartedly with you. Just the cover alone has sold me. It's one of those covers that makes me wish I'd designed it!
