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: A Wicked Thing
Author: Rhiannon Thomas 
Published: February 25th, 2015
Goodreads Summary:

A spinning wheel. A prick of a finger. A terrible curse. 

One hundred years after falling asleep, Princess Aurora wakes up to the kiss of a handsome prince and a broken kingdom that has been dreaming of her return. All the books say that she should be living happily ever after. But as Aurora understands all too well, the truth is nothing like the fairytale.

Her family is long dead. Her “true love” is a kind stranger. And her whole life has been planned out by political foes while she slept. Everyone expects Aurora to marry her betrothed and restore magic and peace to the kingdom before revolution tears it apart. But after a lifetime spent locked in a tower for her own safety, Aurora longs for the freedom to make her own choices. When she meets a handsome rebel, he tempts her to abandon everything for a different kind of life.

As Aurora struggles to make sense of her new world, she begins to fear that the curse has left its mark on her, a fiery and dangerous thing that might be as wicked as the witch who once ensnared her.

With her wedding day drawing near, Aurora must make the ultimate decision on how to save her kingdom: marry the prince or run

My Thoughts:

I love the idea of finding out what really happens after the happily ever after, I am definitely wondering what this one is going to be like!

  1. Oh yes! Definitely looking forward to this one! Tried requesting it from Edelweiss, but haven't gotten a response. Probably stringing me out to just tell me no in another 2 weeks. As my luck goes with the site. :(

    Here's my WoW

    Have a GREAT day!

  2. Ah, this book sounds fantastic! I love the story of Sleeping Beauty and this adaption sounds pretty good. I wonder if it will be a tad darker than Disney's movies.
