Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine and spotlights upcoming releases that we are eagerly anticipating.
Blanca & Roja by Anna-Marie McLemore
It is set to be published on October 9, 2018, by Feiwel & Friends.
After falling in love with Wild Beauty, and buying The Weight of Feathers and The Moon Was Ours, it made senses for me to want to read Blanca & Roja. I adore Anna-Marie’s writing. I cannot wait for this book. It sounds great and I’m sure I’m going to fall in love with this book.
I love this cover! It is illustrated! Beautiful done. I love how two swarms balance each other. The top is blue and the bottom is red. It shows yin and yang. Balance. I love the typography. It works well with this cover. It doesn’t distract from the swans.
The Cerceta girls have never just been sisters; they’re also rivals. They know that one day, they’ll find themselves drawn into a dangerous game to determine which sister will stay a girl and which will be cursed to live as a swan. But when two of their childhood friends become drawn into the game, the curse threatens to decide the fate not just of the sisters, but of all four of them.
I’ve never heard of this one, it sounds like a good one to be waiting on 😊
