Waiting
on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly
anticipating.
This
week’s pre-publication “can’t-wait-to-read” selection is:
The Siren
by Kiera
Cass
Publisher: Harper Teen
Release date: January 26, 2016
From Amazon:
From Kiera Cass, #1 New
York Times bestselling author of the Selection series, comes a captivating
stand-alone fantasy romance.
Kahlen is a Siren, bound to serve the Ocean by luring
humans to watery graves with her voice, which is deadly to any human who hears
it. Akinli is human—a kind, handsome boy who's everything Kahlen ever dreamed
of. Falling in love puts them both in danger . . . but Kahlen can't bear to
stay away. Will she risk everything to follow her heart?
The Siren was previously self-published; this
brand-new edition has been completely rewritten and redesigned.
My Thoughts:
I never
did read the previously self-published version of The Siren. I did however read
The Selection trilogy and really enjoyed it. Cass is a great writer with a
wonderful ability to make the reader get invested in the characters she
creates. One of the greatest things about this novel is the fact that it is a
standalone; and a fantasy on top of that. I think this will make a perfect
weekend read. The entire story in one sitting! So very excited for this
upcoming release!
What book
are you looking forward to being released?
I'm definitely curious about this book. I hope you enjoy it!
