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 is-it-already-here kind of waiting for this week? Where Silence Gathers by Kelsey Sutton!!
Goodreads Summary:
"In this companion novel to the critically acclaimed Some Quiet Place, Alex must choose between Revenge and Forgiveness.
Seventeen-year-old Alexandra Tate sits outside Nate Foster's house, clutching a gun. After serving ten years for the drunk driving accident that killed Alex's family, Nate has been released from prison. Every night, Alex waits out of sight, building up the courage to exact her own justice. There's just one problem: Forgiveness.
Alex has been able to see personified Emotions for as long as she can remember, and Revenge is her best friend. But when Forgiveness suddenly appears, he offers Alex a choice—getting even or moving on. It's impossible to decide when Revenge whispers in one ear . . . and Forgiveness whispers in the other."
Why am I eagerly awaiting Where Silence Gathers? Well, the first book in the series was one of my favourite debuts of the year, very different and one of the first ARCs I also got approved for via NetGalley. After the poetic creepiness of embodied emotions, I cannot wait to see what this sequel/companion novel has in store for us!
What are you all (im)patiently awaiting this week?
I still haven't read the first book in the series and am waiting to see how the sequel will be released before diving in :P I am so glad to hear you enjoyed the first book though! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat Pick, Pili!! :)

They're more like companion books, Rashika. But yeah, probably reading them in publishing order will help you make more sense on the world.
DeleteThank you!
Yessssssss Pili! I'm definitely waiting on this one too! I really enjoyed the first book, it was so quietly eerie and really different as you said, so I'm excited to see what Kelsey has in store for us with this second installment!
ReplyDeleteI loved the first one! And I cannot wait till I can jump on my ARC for this one!! =D
DeleteI haven't read this series yet, Pili. Is this the last book?
ReplyDeleteI've been waiting on Mr. Mercedes by Stephen King, which I just picked up from the library. :)
It's a companion books series, and yeah as far as I know, it is the last book planned for now!
DeleteOy! I suppose my review came at a bad time then? I hope you read and love it (more than I did), Pili! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog!
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!
Don't worry girl! I'll just hope I'll like the book more than you did!
Delete*whispers* I have never read the first book.....
ReplyDeleteIs this another that's going to be pushed on me? LOL.
Great pick, Pili! Hope you're having a fantabulous week!!!
Hmmm, I'd highly recommend Some Quiet Place, but also be warned is a very different kinda book!! ;)
DeleteI haven't read the first book in this series but I've been meaning too. The synopsis of this one sure does look amazing though. Hope you enjoy :)

Thanks Mari! I read and loved the first one, so I'm really excited for this one!
DeleteI'm excited for this one too! I also was approved for it, so I'll be reading it along with Some Quiet Place real soon.
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll love both Some Quiet Place and this one! I cannot wait to start it!
DeleteYES! I'm planning on reading & reviewing this one soon! I was just telling a friend about Some Quiet Place last night. I keep buying copies and giving them away. Lovely choice!
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to hear what you think, Sabrina! I hope we both will love it!
DeleteI have never heard about this one, I will have to check this one out. I will have to read the other novel first since this is a companion novel! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing lovely & I hope you get it as soon as you can! :)
Alex @ The Shelf Diaries
Thanks Alex! I'll be reading it this weekend! =D
DeleteAh, that cover is pretty. I liked the first book too, although I confess I found it hard to wrap my mind around the premise, hah. The author is definitely talented, though, and I would definitely read another book by her sometime.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy the sequel just as much!
Wendy @ The Midnight Garden
