Hi guys! So, this week I actually went a little CrAzY on my WOW post! I have two titles to share with you because I just cannot wait for these exciting books!

Three high school girls become the avenging Furies of Greek legend.
We were only three angry girls, to begin with. Alix, the hot-tempered surfer chick; Stephanie, the tree-hugging activist; and me, Meg, the quiet foster kid, the one who never quite fit in. We hardly knew each other, but each of us nurtured a burning anger: at the jerks in our class, at our disappointing parents, at the whole flawed, unjust world.
We were only three angry girls, simmering uselessly in our ocean-side California town, until one day a mysterious, beautiful classmate named Ambrosia taught us what else we could be: Powerful. Deadly. Furious.
Last week, I was waiting on Death and by Darynda Jones and since starting it I must say I'm really enjoying it, so it's only fitting that I add the next installment of her Darklight series #2, Death, Doom, and Detention.

The normal part of Lorelei MacAlister’s life didn’t just slip away quietly the day Jared Kovach came to town. Nope. The normal part of her life shattered. It exploded. It burst into a gazillion shards of fleeting light.
It went out with a bang.
Goodbye normal.
Hello dark and eerie.
While her best friend, Brooklyn, is focusing all of her energy on helping Lorelei hone her abilities, Lorelei is dealing with the reality that Satan’s second in command has taken up residence inside her body. Oh, and the fact that she has a crush on the Angel of Death. But what a beautiful death it is. If those weren’t bad enough, something sinister has come to town and it wants nothing more than to hear Lorelei’s dying breath as it strangles it out of her. Thank goodness the gang has a supernatural champion. But what happens when the only being who can save them switches sides midstream? How can a group of misfits capture one of the most powerful beings ever created? And will they find out how to bring Jared back to them before it’s too late...

Those three girls don't look too pretty which is unusual in YA covers--even if the girls are mad as hell...lol...The fury mythology has been popular in YA lately.
ReplyDeleteI want to try a Darynda Jones book but I may start with her adult series first. Nice picks. :)
ReplyDeleteMy Wow
Both of these sound SO good! Great picks! I added the one from last week to my TBR. It's good to know you're liking it. Furious is already on my TBR list and has a gorgeous cover! Happy reading.

I've heard of Furious and it sounds good but Death, doom and detention is new for me and I love the sound of it. I'll add it to my to-read list and hopefully I'll get the chance to read it soon after it comes out. Great picks.
ReplyDeleteCome check out my WOW post.
Furious sounds AWESOME! I love stories about the Furies. I don't like the cover, though. It's not blending into the background very well. Maybe it'll look better in real life? :D

ReplyDeleteMy WoW Post
Okay, first cover? Terrifying! Second? Very nice and the first book is definitely a good one. I love Darynda Jones, I remember how excited I was to get an ARC of her very first book. :) Great pick, I can't wait to see your review of Death and the Girl Next Door.
ReplyDeleteThose Furies books scare the bejeebus out of me ever since Fury by Elizabeth Miles. I'm staying away from that one to protect myself from nightmares. lol
