Waiting on Wednesday (#10)

Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. This meme highlights some of the books whose releases bloggers are most anticipating this year.

The book whose release I am most excited for this week is...


Wings (Black City #3)
By: Elizabeth Richards

Expected publication: June 12th 2014

Following the cliffhanger ending of Phoenix, Natalie finds herself separated from Ash and unexpectedly reunited with her parents, including the father she thought was dead. But she can only think of Ash. She hasn't heard a word of him since she and Elijah were brought to the underground headquarters of the Sentry Rebellion. But she vows to find him.

Ash, meanwhile is back in Black City; it's the perfect place to hide from the Sentry government. But not for long. He won't give up on Natalie or bringing an end to the terrible reign of Purian Rose.

A pulse-racing end to an exciting series.

First off, I want to apologize for it being nearly a year since I posted anything on this blog. I've been seriously slacking in reading and blogging, shameful I know. Hopefully, this post is the start of a comeback, so expect to see posts of some sort published weekly.

Now, on to Wings. The first book in the Black City series, Black City, had me hooked from page one. I cannot even begin to describe how obsessed I was with that book. Even so, there were a few things in the plot that bothered me. However, that didn't stop me from devouring the book and quickly moving on to the second. 

At this point, I have mixed feelings about the book. There are parts I don't particularly like, yet I can't stop reading. I have to know what happens next. But don't get me wrong, while there are parts I don't like, there are parts I adore, though I won't go into that, wouldn't want to spoil anything for those of you who haven't read the series. 

Final reason for wanting to read Wings: cover-lust. The covers of the book in the Black City series are some of my favorites. They're so beautiful. Especially this one because well...it's a butterfly.
