The Amarant Enchantment by Julie BerryAbout the Book: (From Amazon) When Lucinda Chapdelaine was a small child, her parents left for the royal ball and never returned. Ever since, Lucinda has been stuck in perpetual servitude at her evil aunt’s jewelry store. Then, on the very same day, a mysterious visitor and an even more bizarre piece of jewelry both enter the shop, setting in motion a string of twists and turns that will forever alter Lucinda’s path. In this magical story filled with delightful surprises, Lucinda will dance at the royal ball, fall under the Amaranth Witch’s spell, avenge her parents’ death, and maybe—just maybe—capture the heart
of a prince.
GreenBeanTeenQueen Says: I came across this one in my Shelfari searches and I knew I had to read it! The cover is just beautiful and the story sounds like a great fantasy/fairy tale, which I'm always up for reading. Look for this debut author's book to come out March 3.
Sent (The Missing) Book 2 by Margaret Peterson HaddixAbout the Book: Ok, I can't really say much about this one without giving away the story, so you'll just have to read my review of book one in the series, Found.
GreenBeanTeenQueen Says: Book one in the series, Found, ended with such a HUGE cliffhanger, I can't wait for August to come so I can keep reading! The good thing is, author Margaret Peterson Haddix apologized for the cliffhanger ending on her site,
so I guess I'll forgive her. This series is a great action/adventure/suspense read that's great for all ages, so I'm looking forward to sharing this one with my brother, who is also eagerly awaiting August.
What's our your list this Wednesday?
What's on my list?
ReplyDeleteWrite now I'm in the middle of reading Maximum Ride:The Angel Experiment, and I must say, I haven't had this much fun reading a book since I read Fablehaven.
I've resently finished Need, by Carrie Jones. Best paranormal romance I've read since reading Twilight all those years ago.
Setting on my bookshelf are Luxe and Flora Segunda. I'm just inching to read them all at the same time, but I haven't the time. I have a manuscript to finish up on.
Love your blog.

Hi J.T.!
ReplyDeleteI need to read Maximum Ride and Fablehaven, but have heard great things about both.
I loved The Luxe, but it does take a bit to get into-but it's a fun gossipy read.
I can't wait to read Need-I just put that one on hold at my library.
Thanks for finding my blog!:)
