Waiting on Wednesday is, of course, brought to us by the lovely Jill at Breaking the Spine.
It's still Wednesday! And it's only 4pm, that's not that late. I've been doing a lot of stuff for work all day. So I know it's been a little dead around here lately, but I'm working on that picture book features and hoping to get a couple reviews up soon.
Anyways, on to the waiting! My first book this week is:
Infinity by Sherrilyn Kenyon - Release date June 1st, 2010 (Canada day!)
At 14, Nick Gautier is an average kid who runs with the wrong crowd. But on the night he decides to go straight and refuses to mug an innocent tourist, his crew turns on him and just as he thinks his life is over... a new one begins.
Kyrian of Thrace isn't just a vampire slayer, he's a Dark-Hunter and he introduces Nick to a world that he never imagined.
With new enemies who make his old ones look like wimps, Nick must either measure up or get sized for a body bag. It's kill or be killed and this kid who was born on the wrong side finds a strength inside him that he never knew existed.
Now if he can only find someone to help battle the demons that don't reside inside him.
(Summary from goodreads.)
Why I want it: Sherrilyn Kenyon has a lot of romance novels and I haven't read many of them, but I've read a couple and a couple short stories of hers and I quite liked them, so this interests me. Plus the shades of blue on the cover are just gorgeous to me.
And my other pick is:
The Forbidden Sea by Sheila A. Nielson - Release date July 1st, 2010
When, one stormy night, a mermaid comes to take Adrianne Keynnman’s sister, Cecily, down into the depths of the sea, Adrianne knows she must fight with every ounce of her strength to protect her little sister. On land, Adrianne toils away, trying to eke out a living for her mother, sister, and aunt, after a tragic accident stole her father. Now, life takes a strange and frightening turn as Adrianne’s dreams are filled with the mermaid’s singing...
(Summary from goodreads.)
Why I want this: Dude. One word. Mermaid.
Okay, I think that's it for me for this week!
Peace and cookies,
