Waiting On Wednesday!



Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine, that highlights upcoming book releases that everyone is waiting on.

This weeks selection is:

 
Title: Dorthy Must Die
Author: Danielle Paige
Published: April 1st, 2014
Goodreads Summary:

I didn't ask for any of this. I didn't ask to be some kind of hero.
But when your whole life gets swept up by a tornado—taking you with it—you have no choice but to go along, you know?

Sure, I've read the books. I've seen the movies. I know the song about the rainbow and the happy little blue birds. But I never expected Oz to look like this. To be a place where Good Witches can't be trusted, Wicked Witches may just be the good guys, and winged monkeys can be executed for acts of rebellion. There's still the yellow brick road, though—but even that's crumbling.

What happened?
Dorothy. They say she found a way to come back to Oz. They say she seized power and the power went to her head. And now no one is safe.

My name is Amy Gumm—and I'm the other girl from Kansas.
I've been recruited by the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked.
I've been trained to fight.
And I have a mission:
Remove the Tin Woodman's heart.
Steal the Scarecrow's brain.
Take the Lion's courage.
Then and only then—Dorothy must die!

 My Thoughts:

I don't know about you guys but, I loved the Wizard of Oz growing up like I watched the movie every day, I loved it so much. I am so excited to read this one, I can't wait to see where the author goes with this story!

  2. Wow! This one sounds good! I can't tell yet who I'll be rooting for. I, too, LOVE the "Wizard of Oz," and I can't imagine rooting for someone set on destroying all of it. Time will tell. Thanks for sharing!
