"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:
Wayfarer by Alexandra Bracken
Book Two of the Passenger series
Publisher: Disney-Hyperion
Publication Date: January 3, 2017
Summary (from Goodreads):
All Etta Spencer wanted was to make her violin debut when she was thrust into a treacherous world where the struggle for power could alter history. After losing the one thing that would have allowed her to protect the Timeline, and the one person worth fighting for, Etta awakens alone in an unknown place and time, exposed to the threat of the two groups who would rather see her dead than succeed. When help arrives, it comes from the last person Etta ever expected—Julian Ironwood, the Grand Master’s heir who has long been presumed dead, and whose dangerous alliance with a man from Etta’s past could put them both at risk.
Meanwhile, Nicholas and Sophia are racing through time in order to locate Etta and the missing astrolabe with Ironwood travelers hot on their trail. They cross paths with a mercenary-for-hire, a cheeky girl named Li Min who quickly develops a flirtation with Sophia. But as the three of them attempt to evade their pursuers, Nicholas soon realizes that one of his companions may have ulterior motives.
As Etta and Nicholas fight to make their way back to one another, from Imperial Russia to the Vatican catacombs, time is rapidly shifting and changing into something unrecognizable… and might just run out on both of them.
So excited for this conclusion! Plus, the cover is PURPLE. :D

Old Follower :)
I love the trend too, Jessica!
DeleteI want this one! Just so I can start the series! I so want to start it, but since it was a duology I thought I could wait. Yeah, I was wrong. The wait is killing me.
ReplyDeleteMy WOW
LOL! Angela, that is a great idea! Binge-reading is less painful most of the time. :D
DeletePurple covers are rare, no? I hope you love this conclusion when you get the chance to read it! :D
ReplyDeleteThey are! Thank you, Nick. =)
DeleteYes! *does the running man* I am so so so ready for this!

DeleteGAH! I still need to read Passenger *hides* but seeing the pretty cover for Wayfarer reminded me that I need to MOVE MY BUTT and catch up XD Great pick^^xx

ReplyDeletemy WoW!
Awww! But me too!
DeleteAwesome pick! :) I'm so excited for this one too! I hope they do ARCs because I need one. Haha! I love the purple cover, it's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI doubt they will, Disney never does, for final books. :/
DeleteI recently started Passenger, and while I was confused at the very beginning, I'm really liking it so far! And I can't wait to read the sequel. I'm really excited to have a book with a purple cover, as I have so few!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my WoW
Lizzie @ Big Books and Grande Lattes
The beginning was a bit confusing! A little boring, too. But the story picked up nicely.
DeleteYes, there is a distinct lack of purple beauty in YA! We must demand more!
When I first read the title I immediately thought of the Wayfarer sunglasses haha. This book looks really good though! I have so many on my TBR list right now it's overwhelming--but what's new, right? Thanks for sharing! ~Rachel
ReplyDeleteLOL! That is funny. :D The TBR never stops growing, does it? Reading is an overwhelming hobby!
DeleteAlso, HIIII! *hugs* I hope you're doing well, Rachel!
I really need to read the first book in this series! I hope you enjoy reading this book.
ReplyDeleteMy WoW
Thank you, Sandra!
DeleteThis cover is insanely pretty!!! And I thought it was a trilogy, so finding out it's a duo logy makes me even more eager to read both books, though I'll def be waiting for this one so I can binge them!
ReplyDeleteYaaasss, duology is where it's at! I hope you love the series, Meredith!
DeleteI love the covers for both of these books, but I still haven't read the first one. I haven't even finished her Darkest Minds trilogy yet. *sigh* So behind...
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy Wayfarer when you get your hands on it.
Rachelle @ Shell's Stories
I know that feeling of being behind well, Rachelle. So many books!
DeleteThank you! <3
Wow what a beautiful cover! I need to read the first one already. I haven't read anything by this author yet. I feel so ashamed. LOL. I hope you love this one when you read it!!!! :D
ReplyDeleteNaaahhhh, don't feel bad! Bracken has some really great books though - try Brightly Woven. It's a standalone!
DeleteThank you, Erin!
Love the cover! I still need to read the first one. I checked it out from the library but it had to go back before I could get to it. Enjoy this one!
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely one of my favorites! I hope you love Passenger, Carole. =)
DeleteI absolutely love the cover and I can't wait to see where Etta's journey takes her next. :D
ReplyDelete- Lois @ My Midnight Musing

DeleteYes great pick! I loved Passenger and I can't wait to read what happens next. The cover is so gorgeous!
