‘Waiting on Wednesday’ is a meme created by Breaking the Spine where each week we discuss upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating. I am looking forward to SO MANY BOOKS, so this weekly meme is a great way for me to share what books I need to get my hands on!

A world divided.
A queendom without an heir.
An ancient enemy awakens.

The House of Berethnet has ruled Inys for a thousand years. Still unwed, Queen Sabran the Ninth must conceive a daughter to protect her realm from destruction—but assassins are getting closer to her door.

Ead Duryan is an outsider at court. Though she has risen to the position of lady-in-waiting, she is loyal to a hidden society of mages. Ead keeps a watchful eye on Sabran, secretly protecting her with forbidden magic.

Across the dark sea, Tané has trained all her life to be a dragonrider, but is forced to make a choice that could see her life unravel.

Meanwhile, the divided East and West refuse to parley, and forces of chaos are rising from their sleep.

Isn’t it obvious?

1) It’s a book by Samantha Shannon.

2) It’s a high fantasy

3) It has dragons in it

4) IT SOUNDS AWESOME

The only thing that I’m not looking forward to when it comes to this book is the size of it. IT’S 848 PAGES! THAT IS NOT A BOOK, THAT IS A WEAPON!

Have you gotten to read this early? If so what are your thoughts on it? If not, are you guys interested in picking this book up? I would love to hear your thoughts on it. I AM SO EXCITED!!

Until next time…
