Waiting on Wednesday (137): The Queen's Choice + The Wicked We Have Done

I'm not sure what to put here. *laughs* Anyway, I heard Korea's had the first snowfall yesterday (my friends who live there can't stop saying how cold it was) and, well, the temperature in Manila's starting to be cooler especially in the mornings and at night. Ahhh, looks like Christmas is just around the corner. Come here 2014, I need a new wave of awesome books to read!

Summary (from Goodreads):

Magic was seeping out of me, black and agonizing. I could see it drifting away. The magic that would let me pass the Road to reach home again.

When sixteen-year-old Anya learns that her aunt, Queen of the Faerie Kingdom of Chrior, will soon die, her grief is equalled only by her despair for the future of the kingdom. Her young cousin, Illumina, is unfit to rule, and Anya is determined not to take up the queen's mantle herself.

Convinced that the only solution is to find Prince Zabriel, who long ago disappeared into the human realm of Warckum, and persuade him to take up his rightful crown, Anya journeys into the Warckum Territory to bring him home. But her journey is doomed to be more harrowing than she ever could have imagined.

Why I'm waiting for The Queen's Choice:

Because Cayla Kluver is awesome? I absolutely love her Legacy series (one of my recent favorites, actually) and I am just so happy that she has another fantasy book coming out and soon! My favorite fae series happens to be published by HQN Teen as well, so I'm definitely on the look out for this book to see if it's going to be another awesome story about the Fae.

Title: The Wicked We Have Done (Chaos Theory #1) by Sarah Harian

Summary (from Goodreads):

Evalyn Ibarra never expected to be an accused killer and experimental prison test subject. A year ago, she was a normal college student. Now she’s been sentenced to a month in the compass room—an advanced prison obstacle course designed by the government to execute justice.

If she survives, the world will know she’s innocent.

Locked up with nine notorious and potentially psychotic criminals, Evalyn must fight the prison and dismantle her past to stay alive. But the system prized for accuracy appears to be killing at random.

She doesn’t plan on making friends.

She doesn’t plan on falling in love, either.

Why I'm waiting for The Wicked We Have Done:

Can someone just give me a copy of this book now? It sounds so, so amazing. And that's just the summary. I don't touch anything New Adult since I have my own reservations for the said genre/type of book, it's either YA or Adult Romance for me, but coming across this book and finding out it's NA makes me think of giving it a try. Aside from the madly gorgeous cover? Who can resist a story about a girl, mistaken for a murderer trapped in an obstacle course with other 9 notorious criminals? I can't, so I am definitely excited for this book to come out!

Review: Restore Me (Shatter Me #4) by Tahereh Mafi

Dear Tahereh, Are you sure this book is really entitled “Restore Me”? Because this didn’t restore me AT ALL. This DESTROYED AND SHATTERED ME. Which, now that I think about it, is the title of the whole series so I should’ve expected that. Love, Kai Title: Restore Me (Shatter Me #4) by Tahereh Mafi Release Date: March 6, 2018 Published by: HarperCollins Source: Bought (Kindle) Buy online: National Bookstore Summary: Juliette Ferrars thought she'd won. She took over Sector 45, was named the new Supreme Commander, and now has Warner by her side. But she's still the girl with the ability to kill with a single touch—and now she's got the whole world in the palm of her hand. When tragedy hits, who will she become? Will she be able to control the power she wields and use it for good? I thought I was done with this series. I will admit that I was surprised when I found out there was another book because I always thought stories that could’ve ended the way they did must be left ...

But none of these is her native tongue--the only people who speak that are her best friend Stu and her sister Kate.
