Waiting on Wednesday...

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme where we basically whine about the books we want to read NOW. It's hosted by Breaking the Spine
Today's Waiting on Wednesday is Huntress by the fabulous Malinda Lo and is the sequel to Ash.

the premise: nothing too unusual - nature is all out of whack so two seventeen year old girls are chosen to go visit the Fairy Queen and figure out what's going on. (Really? Teen girls? Oh well, we all know they get shit done). Naturally everyone else in their party is useless and the girls begin to rely on each other and fall in love but do they have what it takes to save the kingdom? And are they willing to do what it takes even if it means tearing them apart?

why I'm dying to read it: I really enjoyed Ash and this one sounds even better. Action adventure + romance? Yes please!! I didn't find the romance in Ash particularly swoon-worthy so I'm hoping Huntress will be a bit more intense. (Plus, have you seen that cover? SWOON!)

how long I have to wait: April 5th - enough time to reread Ash!

while you're waiting check out: Definitely check out Ash and if you like your romance with a side of action/adventure, also check out Fire by Kristin Cashore.
