"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:
Blood for Blood by Ryan Graudin
Book Two of the Wolf by Wolf series
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Publication Date: November 1, 2016
Summary (from Goodreads):
There would be blood.
Blood for blood.
Blood to pay.
An entire world of it.
For the resistance in 1950s Germany, the war may be over, but the fight has just begun.
Death camp survivor Yael, who has the power to skinshift, is on the run: the world has just seen her shoot and kill Hitler. But the truth of what happened is far more complicated, and its consequences are deadly. Yael and her unlikely comrades dive into enemy territory to try to turn the tide against the New Order, and there is no alternative but to see their mission through to the end, whatever the cost.
But dark secrets reveal dark truths, and one question hangs over them all: how far can you go for the ones you love?
This gripping, thought-provoking sequel to Wolf by Wolf will grab readers by the throat with its cinematic writing, fast-paced action, and relentless twists.
I loved Wolf by Wolf! I know this ARC will be at BEA, which is awesome (and sad for me). I can't wait to read it!
I heard so many great things about the first book.. but I still have to read it.. Love the cover ^^ Great pick !

DeleteAh, I hope you get your hands on an arc of this one soon, dear! I love the sound of the historical period mixed with the paranormal powers. Sounds like a fun and exciting story!
ReplyDeleteThe first book was SO good! I'm desperate for this one. ^_^
DeleteI didn't read the description because I haven't read book one yet but I have heard lots of great things about it and while I don't generally read historical type stories it has made me consider picking it up. My WoW
ReplyDeleteThis is like, paranormal alternate history! Very low on the actual history. If that makes sense.

ReplyDeleteTraci @ The Reading Geek
It was amazing! Thank you, Traci. =)
DeleteI've heard about this book everywhere, but somehow I missed all the talk about book one.
ReplyDeleteI really have to check this series.
That must be some rock you're living under! ;) I hope you do get a chance to read this series, Lis. :D
DeleteOMG, Alyssa, this looks SO AWESOME!! I meant to come over sooner to see what you had picked, but things got complicated.... Anyway, I have never seen this series before, and don't know the author. What really grabbed me in this synopsis was that the female protagonist shot and killed Hitler. Gosh, if only that had been true.....so many innocent people might not have died.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds just VERY intriguing!! I'm adding it to my Goodreads shelves right away!! Thanks for sharing!! Have a GREAT weekend!! :)
Wolf By Wolf was one of the most impressive books I read last year! I'm anxious to get my hands on the sequel. You're missing so much context! I highly recommend the series so you can see how it all went down. I hope you enjoy, Maria!
DeleteYesss. Best pick Alyssa :D I am DYING for this book as well. It killed me to see it at BEA pictures :( SOBS. BUT THEN. BUT THEN. Ahhhhh. Ryan tweeted today that I WON THE ARC she gave away :D OH MY GOSH. I am beyond excited. Eee. It will be signed :D And mine. And gosh. I will get to read it shortly. I'm so nervous. Shudders. Yet beyond excited :D I really, really hope you will get it too soon. <3 Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for you! I hope you love it, Carina. =)
