Waiting on Wednesday! 4/24/2013


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where we highlight books that us as readers are looking forward to!

This week, I have picked The Chaos of Stars by Kiersten White! I stumbled across this book on Goodreads, read the synopsis and immediately started anticipating September. Plus this book offers a serious amount of cover porn…i mean…look at the cover, it's beautiful.


Good reads synopsis:
Of course, as the human daughter of Egyptian gods, that pretty much comes with the territory. She’s also stuck with parents who barely notice her, and a house full of relatives who can’t be bothered to remember her name. After all, they are going to be around forever—and she’s a mere mortal.
Isadora’s sick of living a life where she’s only worthy of a passing glance, and when she has the chance to move to San Diego with her brother, she jumps on it. But Isadora’s quickly finding that a “normal” life comes with plenty of its own epic complications—and that there’s no such thing as a clean break when it comes to family. Much as she wants to leave her past behind, she can’t shake the ominous dreams that foretell destruction for her entire family. When it turns out there may be truth in her nightmares, Isadora has to decide whether she can abandon her divine heritage after all.
 This book sounds fantastic, I have never read anything by Kiersten White, but after reading the synopsis of this one I may have to pick one up!
The release date for The Chaos of Stars is September 10th, 2013 and it will be published by Harper Teen.
