Waiting On Wednesday [@jodimeadows @harperteen @KatherineTegen]

Waiting On Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine
My pick for this week:


THE MIRROR KING (The Orphan Queen #2) by Jodi Meadows

Wilhelmina has a hundred enemies.

HER FRIENDS HAVE TURNED. After her identity is revealed during the Inundation, Princess Wilhelmina is kept prisoner by the Indigo Kingdom, with the Ospreys lost somewhere in the devastated city. When the Ospreys’ leader emerges at the worst possible moment, leaving Wil’s biggest ally on his deathbed, she must become Black Knife to set things right.

HER MAGIC IS UNCONTROLLABLE. Wil’s power is to animate, not to give true life, but in the wraithland she commanded a cloud of wraith mist to save herself, and later ordered it solid. Now there is a living boy made of wraith—destructive and deadly, and willing to do anything for her.

HER HEART IS TORN. Though she’s ready for her crown, declaring herself queen means war. Caught between what she wants and what is right, Wilhelmina realizes the throne might not even matter. Everyone thought the wraith was years off, but already it’s destroying Indigo Kingdom villages. If she can’t protect both kingdoms, soon there won’t be a land to rule.

In this stunning conclusion to THE ORPHAN QUEEN, Jodi Meadows follows Wilhelmina’s breathtaking and brave journey from orphaned criminal on the streets to magic-wielding queen.

Why?

I do not want to give too many/any spoilers here for The Orphan Queen because you really, really need to read that book if you haven't. Suffice it to say, I LOVED The Orphan Queen!

After that ending, especially, and the characters we met and the secrets we learned, I am really excited and eager to find out what happens in The Mirror King.

I really can't wait to be taken back to the world of Wil and the Indigo Kingdom!

(Plus, it's my birthday week WOW so I need a really great pick.)

  1. Oooh this looks amazing! Except I haven't actually read the The Orphan Queen so I guess I'd have to pick that up first. I've just been out of the YA community for a bit, so I missed out on some good stuff!
