Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly feature hosted at Breaking The Spine that spotlights those can't-wait-to-get-my-hands-on-them books that we are eagerly awaiting!
What book am I metaphorically-biting-my-nails-for this week? City of Heavenly Fire by Cassandra Clare!!
Goodreads Summary:
"ΕRCHOMAI, SEBASTIAN HAD SAID.
I am coming.
Darkness returns to the Shadowhunter world. In the long-awaited conclusion to the acclaimed Mortal Instruments series, Clary and her friends fight the greatest evil they have ever faced: Clary’s own brother.
Sebastian Morgenstern is on the move, systematically turning Shadowhunter against Shadowhunter. Bearing the Dark Cup, he transforms Shadowhunters into creatures out of nightmare, tearing apart families and lovers as the ranks of his Endarkened army swell.
The embattled Shadowhunters withdraw to Idris — but not even the famed demon towers of Alicante can keep Sebastian at bay. And with the Nephilim trapped in Idris, who will guard the world against demons?
When one of the greatest betrayals the Nephilim have ever known is revealed, Clary, Jace, Isabelle, Simon, and Alec must flee — even if their journey takes them deep into the demon realms, where no Shadowhunter has set foot before, and from which no human being has ever returned . . .
Love will be sacrificed and lives lost in the terrible battle for the fate of the world in the thrilling final installment of the classic urban fantasy series The Mortal Instruments!"
Why am I eagerly awaiting City of Heavenly Fire? Well, I just NEED to know what's going to happen with Clary and Jace!! I need to know what the destiny of all the characters! Even if I'm quite scared to see who will survive, cause I fear the death toll will be high in this one...
What are you all (im)patiently awaiting this week?
I've fallen so far behind on this series Pili! *dramatic sigh* There are so many series out there I've only half finished because I get distracted by new series and new releases. Fail. Must get back to my beloved Jace!
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean!! That's why I'm taking part in Read Sleep Repeat's Series Challenge this year! To finally finish all those series I have halfway and start the ones I've been meaning to start for a while!
DeleteThe book I'm waiting for has actually already been published, but we're going to wait for a few months to read it for my book group because the wait list at the library is really long right now. It's The Museum of Extraordinary Things by Alice Hoffman. She's such a wonderful author, so I already know it will be a treasure!
ReplyDeleteIs she the same author from the Dove Keeper? I hope you'll love it, Holly!
DeleteI cannot wait for this book either!! It's been a long time since I stopped reading the teasers that Cassie gave us... and now I cannot wait any longer!
ReplyDeleteGreat pick!
I know! I'm gonna be bitting my nails till my Amazon preorder arrives!
DeleteAh, yes. <3 I am DYING for this one as well :D It will be epic, won't it? Sigh. I cannot wait. <3 Great pick sweetie :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sort of scared of all the possible deaths but yeah, I'm sure it's gonna be epic!
DeleteThank you, sweetie!
I definitely gave up after book four - I thought it was horrible. The original trilogy was AMAZING, but in my opinion, book four was horrible. I couldn't even finish book five. However, I'll be asking you for spoilers for this book, and you better gimmes! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog!
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!
Don't you worry, Alyssa! I will totally give you ALL THE SPOILERS! It'll actually be awesome to be able to talk long and ranty like about all the spoilers of a book for once! ;)
DeleteMy excitement for this series has slowly faded since the end of City of Glass which I felt was the perfect ending. Still, I love Cassandra Clare and the characters too much not to finish the series. I can't wait to see was Ms. Clare has in store for us :)
ReplyDelete-Mari
I'm excited and scared, Mari!
DeleteI neeeeeeed this one so bad too! From what I've gathered, CC has said that 6 characters that we know the names of will die so I'm TERRIFIED to read this. But I can't wait! May 28th better hurry up!
ReplyDeleteGreat pick, Pili! :D
6?? Is it gonna be worse than Harry Potter then?? Oh my goodness! I'm so scared now, I'll have to read the book with Dylan (my stuffed sheep) nearby to hug him in case of all the feels!!
