"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
THE DAGGER AND THE FLAME BY CATHERINE DOYLEGoodreads Description:
In
the dark underbelly of a beautiful city, two rival assassins are pitted
against each other in a deadly game of revenge, where the most
dangerous mistake of all is falling in love in this searing young adult
fantasy.
In Fantome, a kingdom of cobbled streets,
flickering lamplight, beautiful buildings, and secret catacombs,
Shade-magic is a scarce and deadly commodity controlled by two enemy
guilds: the Cloaks and the Daggers—the thieves and the assassins. On the
night of her mother’s murder, eighteen-year-old Seraphine runs for her
life. Seeking sanctuary with the Cloaks, Sera’s heart is set on revenge.
But are her secret abilities a match for the dark-haired boy whose
quicksilver eyes follow her around the city?
Nothing can prepare
Sera for the moment she finally comes face-to-face with Ransom, heir to
the Order of Daggers. And Ransom is shocked to discover that this
unassuming farm girl wields a strange and blazing magic he has never
seen before. As the Cloaks and the Daggers grapple for control of
Fantome’s underworld, Sera and Ransom are consumed by the push and pull
of their magic…and the deadly spark and terrible vengeance that keeps
drawing them back together.

Ohh. I am unsure about this book. I know, it's already out. But I just got it recently as a Fairyloot edition :) Which do look gorgeous. But yeah. I read a few reviews of this one. And I'm not sure if it would be a book for me or not. And yet, it do sound kind of interesting too. I think I need to do some peeking of it, haha :)
What are you waiting for on this magical Wednesday?
