Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine that allows bloggers to share which books we are most anticipating.
This week I am
waiting on Lady Thief by A. C.
Gaughen (2/11/14):
Description on Goodreads:
Scarlet’s true identity has been revealed, but her future is
uncertain. Her forced marriage to Lord Gisbourne threatens Robin and Scarlet’s
love, and as the royal court descends upon Nottingham for the appointment of a
new Sheriff, the people of Nottingham hope that Prince John will appoint their
beloved Robin Hood. But Prince John has different plans for Nottingham that
revolve around a fateful secret from Scarlet’s past even she isn’t yet aware
of. Forced to participate at court alongside her ruthless husband, Scarlet must
bide her time and act the part of a noblewoman—a worthy sacrifice if it means
helping Robin’s cause and a chance at a future with the man she loves. With a
fresh line of intrigue and as much passion as ever, the next chapter in
Scarlet’s tale will have readers talking once again.
Why I’m Waiting:
How amazing does this sound? I absolutely loved the first
book. I only recently learned that there was to be a book 2 and book 3! I love
YA classics retellings. And Gaughen mastered this with the first book. I can’t
wait to read more about Scarlet and Robin! And while I love stories that take
place at court, I’m hoping to read more about things outside court too! I’m not
the biggest fan of the covers of the series, but I don’t really care. The story
is just so much fun.
What are you waiting on this week?
I love retellings, too. I haven't read the first one yet though, I prefer this cover than the firsts'.
