Waiting on Wednesday #639

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

LADY MACBETH BY AVA REID

Goodreads Description:

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ava Reid comes a reimagining of Lady Macbeth, Shakespeare’s most famous villainess, giving her a voice, a past, and a power that transforms the story men have written for her.

The Lady knows the stories: how her eyes induce madness in men. 

The Lady knows she will be wed to the Scottish brute, who does not leave his warrior ways behind when he comes to the marriage bed.  

The Lady knows his hostile, suspicious court will be a game of strategy, requiring all of her wiles and hidden witchcraft to survive. 

But the Lady does not know her husband has occult secrets of his own. She does not know that prophecy girds him like armor. She does not know that her magic is greater and more dangerous, and that it will threaten the order of the world. 

She does not know this yet. But she will.

Format: 320 pages, Hardcover
Expected Publication: August 6, 2024 by Del Rey
Pre-Order: Blackwells and Amazon US and Amazon UK

I'm all kinds of curious about this book. I know nothing about the original story, not one bit. But I think this one sounds pretty awesome. I loved Ava's latest book, A Study in Drowning, so so very much. I found her first book to be a bit meh. And I'm wondering if I would hate her second book. Oops. But I do not know for sure. So my feelings for her books are mixed, haha :) But yes. I am hoping that I will end up loving this :)
What are you waiting for on this dangerous Wednesday?
