"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:
Fiendish by Brenna Yovanoff
Publisher: Razorbill
Publication Date: August 14, 2014
Summary (from Goodreads):
Clementine DeVore spent ten years trapped in a cellar, pinned down by willow roots, silenced and forgotten.
Now she’s out and determined to uncover who put her in that cellar and why.
When Clementine was a child, dangerous and inexplicable things started happening in New South Bend. The townsfolk blamed the fiendish people out in the Willows and burned their homes to the ground. But magic kept Clementine alive, walled up in the cellar for ten years, until a boy named Fisher sets her free. Back in the world, Clementine sets out to discover what happened all those years ago. But the truth gets muddled in her dangerous attraction to Fisher, the politics of New South Bend, and the Hollow, a fickle and terrifying place that seems increasingly temperamental ever since Clementine reemerged.
This one sounds so haunting and intriguing. That works for me!
I love the cover for this book. So creepy and eerie. Love Brenna Yovanoff's other books, so this one should be good as well.

Awesome! Thank you, Jessica!
DeleteSounds interesting, Hope you get to read it soon!
ReplyDeleteI hope so too, Brandi!
DeleteOh yes! I adore this cover! That alone makes me want to read this book. Awesome choice, Alyssa!! Here's my WOW.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely! It was the same for me - until I read the synopsis, and I was like MUST HAVE. Thank you!
DeleteI loooooove this cover! I thought this was an MG book. Not my usual kind of book but it does look like a good one.
ReplyDeleteNope, I believe it's YA! I hope it is, Nereyda ^_^
DeleteI love the spooky sound of this one! Have you read Brenna Yovanoff's Paper Valentine? I've been meaning to for awhile... Anyway, awesome pick! I'm excited for this one, too!
ReplyDeleteHere's my WOW at Bookmunchies (:
I haven't! But hopefully, this will be my first read of her books.
DeleteThis cover is absolutely creepy :) I've been wanting to read a book by this author for quite some time now! Great pick!

My WoW!
Me too! This is a good place to start ;D
DeleteIt looks like a very interesting take on Sleeping Beauty!
ReplyDeleteHmm, yes!
DeleteLove the cover and it does sound good. Thanks for sharing this pick!
ReplyDeleteMY WoW
Yes and yes!
DeleteHello crazy cool cover! LOL! I'm not really big into thrillers, but I think it's just I haven't found the right one! I will definitely be curious as to what you think of this one and let you tell me yay or nay!
ReplyDeleteAwesomesauce - I will!
DeleteGreat Pick Alyssa I am also interested in this one as well the book looks and sounds creepy good! thanks for sharing Alyssa!
ReplyDeleteI hope you read and enjoy it, Katiria!
DeleteThis one sounds so interesting, especially the idea of being locked in the cellar for years. BUT I swear every time I read the name Clementine I picture a southern matriarch with a big hat, sipping sweet tea and fanning herself on her front porch, calling for her granddaughter. I don't know. Weird visual, but it's true. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat pick Alyssa!!
LOL wow, what a visual! I always think of Laini Taylor's daughter. Which is definitely creepy and stalker-ish, but that's the only person I "know" in real life with the name!
DeleteThank you, Rachel ^_^
I haven't heard about this one yet, but it sounds pretty good. I read Paper Valentine by Brenna Yovanoff and tought it was okay, so I may try and read this one.
ReplyDeleteAnatea @ Anatea's Bookshelf
I'm glad you at least sort of liked it! I have yet to read a book by this author, so I'm hoping this one will be great :D
DeleteI can't believe I haven't read a book by this author before. This one sounds really weird and creepy. I hope you enjoy reading it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by My WoW
I haven't either, though! So don't feel bad! I don't read too many books like these, so I hope it's great. Thank YOU!
DeleteBest pick. I'm also dying for this book :D Hope you will love it. <3
ReplyDeleteExcellent! And you as well, Carina.
DeleteBRENNA YOVANOFF! Haven't read her books in a long time! I liked The Replacement and Smoulder, they were both super creepy. This looks just as creepy... or maybe even more so! I hope you like it and maybe I'll give it a go.
ReplyDelete- Sam @ Falling Books
Huh! You're probably the most knowledgeable when it comes to her books, out of all my commenters. I need a dose of creepy, honestly - I don't read enough! Thank you so much, Sam :)
DeleteWhat a great cover!! I hadn't heard of this one before. I don't do creepy very well. I'm a bit of a wuss unfortunately. :) But I do love the sound of this one.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!! x
I think it's pretty cool too! And I totally know what you mean - to be honest, I'm don't either! But I really want to read this one for some reason. Thank you!
DeleteI love the cover and the synopsis for this one, sounds so haunting and intriguing!
ReplyDeleteGreat pick, Alyssa!
I agree! I hope it lives up to the standards and expectations we are subconsciously/consciously setting ;)
