Waiting on Wednesday: The Wrath and The Dawn by Renee Ahdieh


My TBR list is always growing and I thought it would be fun to share my anticipation for those books with all of you. This is not my own original meme; it belongs to Breaking the Spine. It specifically spotlights upcoming releases. As it implies in the title, I'll be posting this meme on Wednesdays. Please feel free to comment and let me know what books you guys are waiting on as well!




Synopsis: A sumptuous and epically told love story inspired by A Thousand and One Nights

Every dawn brings horror to a different family in a land ruled by a killer. Khalid, the eighteen-year-old Caliph of Khorasan, takes a new bride each night only to have her executed at sunrise. So it is a suspicious surprise when sixteen-year-old Shahrzad volunteers to marry Khalid. But she does so with a clever plan to stay alive and exact revenge on the Caliph for the murder of her best friend and countless other girls. Shazi's wit and will, indeed, get her through to the dawn that no others have seen, but with a catch . . . she’s falling in love with the very boy who killed her dearest friend.

She discovers that the murderous boy-king is not all that he seems and neither are the deaths of so many girls. Shazi is determined to uncover the reason for the murders and to break the cycle once and for all.

I have been hearing a lot of buzz about this book but even without it I would have interested. I love a story about a clever girl and unexpected romance. Judging by the synopsis alone, I added this to my TBR list. On top of that, I have been reading reviews and hearing from the lucky people who were able to receive ARCs of this beauty, and I've only heard and read positive things. I'm so I'm really excited.

Have you guys read this one yet? For those of us who still have to wait, it won't be long. It comes out May 12, 2015.
