Me on Waiting on Wednesday (148)

Waiting on Wednesday is a bunch of weekly fun hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. :)

Title: Wayfarer

Release Date: March 6, 2013
Publisher: Razorbill (Penguin imprint)

From Goodreads:

New York Times bestselling author Lili St. Crow thrilled legions of fans with her dark paranormal series Strange Angels. Now she has created a stirringly romantic, deliciously spooky update of Cinderella, the alluring second volume in her trilogy Tales of Beauty and Madness.

Ellie Sinder is a Charmer—the most powerful of her age that St. Juno’s Academy has ever seen. But Ellie’s stepmother, Laurissa, wields manipulation and abuse to force Ellie to work her spells ever more intensely, for Laurissa’s profit.

Then a train from over the Wastelands arrives in New Haven, bearing on it golden boy Avery Fletcher, newly returned from prep school, wearing a sweater Ellie’d love to bury her face in and a smile as bright as his blond hair. Avery’s arrival sets Laurissa off on a dark and dangerous scheme—and this time the soul up for grabs is Ellie’s.

New York Times bestselling author Lili St. Crow has created a stirringly romantic, deliciously spooky update of Cinderella, the alluring second volume in her trilogy Tales of Beauty and Madness.

I think Lili St. Crow could write about anything and I'd read it. Of course, I haven't gotten around to her adult series' though. Oops. ;)

  1. Seems like faerie tale retellings are popular these days.:)

  2. I haven't read anything by Lili St Crow but I've heard great things about her books.
    I'm not too big on fairy tale retellings but I have to admit that the cover is gorgeous!
    Lovely pick!
