"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:
Devils & Thieves by Jennifer Rush
Book One of the Devils & Thieves series
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Publication Date: October 3, 2017
Summary (from Goodreads):
Eighteen-year-old Jemmie Carmichael has grown up surrounded by magic in the quiet town of Hawthorne, New York. In her world, magic users are called "kindled," and Jemmie would count herself among them if only she could cast a simple spell without completely falling apart. It doesn't help that she was also recently snubbed by Crowe, the dangerous and enigmatic leader of the Black Devils kindled motorcycle gang and the unofficial head of their turf.
When the entire kindled community rolls into Hawthorne for an annual festival, a rumor begins spreading that someone is practicing forbidden magic. Then people start to go missing. With threats closing in from every side, no one can be trusted. Jemmie and Crowe will have to put aside their tumultuous history to find their loved ones, and the only thing that might save them is the very flaw that keeps Jemmie from fully harnessing her magic. For all her years of feeling useless, Jemmie may just be the most powerful kindled of all.
Honestly, I will read anything Jennifer Rush writes! Her debut series was awesome - Altered was one of my favorite books of 2013. It's been a while since her last book was published, and I have been anxiously awaiting this new one for quite some time! I believe it used to be called Rising Three.
It's not often I see a YA with a Motorcycle Club and magic! I'm going to check this one out. Sounds good, Alyssa! :)
ReplyDeleteRIGHT?! Mostly in adult romance, but not YA. :O
DeleteI haven't read this author before, but this book looks really good! I love the premise - sounds so exciting and mysterious :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, Alyssa!
