"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week, I'm featuring:
Dearest by Alethea Kontis
Book Three of the Woodcutters Sisters series
Publication Date: February 3, 2015
Summary (from Goodreads):
Readers met the Woodcutter sisters (named after the days of the week) in Enchanted and Hero. In this delightful third book, Alethea Kontis weaves together some fine-feathered fairy tales to focus on Friday Woodcutter, the kind and loving seamstress. When Friday stumbles upon seven sleeping brothers in her sister Sunday’s palace, she takes one look at Tristan and knows he’s her future. But the brothers are cursed to be swans by day. Can Friday’s unique magic somehow break the spell?

I haven't read Hero yet, but I LOVED Enchanted!

I haven't read Hero yet, but I LOVED Enchanted!
YES! I cannot wait to read this one! Alethea says she plans on writing a book for each sister and I am loving it! I read Hero when it came out, but I remember enjoying it just as much as Enchanted!

Old Follower :)
It's fantastic, because her fantasy/fairy tales are amazing. I'm happy to hear that about Hero! I need to grab a copy O_O
DeleteThank you!
I have never heard of this series but I definitely need to read more fairytale retellings and Enchanted seems like a good one! Your review definitely piqued my interest and I will keep an eye on the series. Awesome pick, Alyssa :)
ReplyDeleteEnchanted came out years ago, maybe that's why. And it almost seems like Hero and Dearest are flying under the radar a bit... but it's a fabulous series. I hope you enjoy the books if you read them, Roy!
DeleteAwesome pick sweetie :D And yessss. Me too, lol. I loved book one as well, but have yet to read Hero. Ack. But soon I will read them all :) Very excited for this one as well. <3 So cute.
ReplyDeleteSoon, soon! We have a lot on our plates, eh? ^_^
DeleteI've never heard about this series, but it seems really great. I'll have to check out Enchanted!
ReplyDeleteYou should! Plus the covers are gorgeous, right?! :D
DeleteI loved the first book in this series, but I haven't read the second book yet. I hope you enjoy reading this one!
ReplyDeleteMy WoW
I'm in the same boat! At least they're companion novels ^_^
DeleteOooh this sounds like an interesting series -- thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteMy WoW
I've had both Enchanted and Hero for forever on my wish list and the series keeps going on and I really need to catch up already!
ReplyDeleteFantastic pick, Alyssa, I had no idea the third book was coming up and had such a gorgeous cover too!
Fantasyyyyyyy, they are awesome!! Alethea is hard at work with this series! I think this cover is my favorite :D
DeleteI haven't heard of this series but that synopsis is so intriguing!! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteEileen @ BookCatPin
I agree! You're welcome ^_^
DeleteI really do love this series. This series is awesome. Althea does such a good job with her retellings and I'm sure this will be no exception.
ReplyDeleteGrace @ Books of Love
I agree! She's quite the talented lady :D
DeleteI love the covers of this series! I'm not really interested in reading it, but I'm glad you loved the first book. I hope you love the rest of the series. :)
ReplyDeleteAhhh, that's okay! Thank you, Kaitlin ^_^
DeleteOoh I haven't read this series but by the sound of this book it's amazing. It's another series I need to add to my ever growing pile of awesome books I need to read.
ReplyDeleteGreat pick!

Yuuuppp, basically, it never ends O_O Thank you!
DeleteOne of my friends LOVES the series. I do have all three books (although I know there will be seven in the series) and I shall read them (or my friend might kill me!) Beautiful covers all of them!
ReplyDeleteYou definitely should! And OMG the long series kill me. But I believe this is a companion series, so there's that!
DeleteSounds like a great book. I hope you get it soon! Thanks for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteBrittany @ Spare Time Book blog

Naomi @ Nomi’s Paranormal Palace
Maybe you should!
DeleteDon't know much about this series but sounds good and hope you get a chance to read it soon!
ReplyDeleteI picked up this book at BEA, without having read the first two. I've heard they're pretty cute, so I plan to remedy that soon. :)
ReplyDeleteCute, and sweet! You should definitely binge-read the series (what is published, anyway) :D
DeleteHaha, I'm in the same boat as you! Really enjoyed Enchanted, need to read Hero still, too. I love this cover! Yay, fairy tale retellings! I like this story (: Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteBasically, we need to read more, right? We'll never get unstuck from our TBR lists! I hope you read/enjoy the series, Cyn!
DeleteIs it bad that I don't remember Enchanted that much? I swear I read it, but I couldn't tell you a thing about it... I do LOVE the fairy tale this one is based off of, though, so I'll have to read it! I adore these covers, too. :) Great pick Alyssa!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I read it a while ago as well, so it's fuzzy for me as well. BUT, I remember loving it. Thank you!
DeleteI have seen Enchanted before but I never picked it up! Hopefully I'll be able to give this one a go.
ReplyDeleteI hope you love it
Sam @ Falling Books
Perhaps! Thank you, Sam <3
