"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Goodreads Description:
Set in a world of insatiable immortals, their
eternal rivalries, and the humans trapped between them, MORTAL THINGS
is a cinematic and sweeping new fantasy from #1 New York Times-bestselling author Marie Lu, perfect for fans of Heartless Hunter and A Darker Shade of Magic.
Rose Lin Fairchild didn’t believe in gods, but one chose her anyway.
Rose
despises Raven, the god of Death. His mysterious commands. His
mercurial moods. His closed heart. But most of all, she loathes that she
was forced to become his Harbinger, a human mercenary tasked to fulfil
their god’s every want and whim. Still, she would do it again, because
being a Harbinger is the only thing keeping her best friend alive.
When
a murder rocks the world of the gods, Rose is suddenly thrust into the
immortal realm's spotlight as Raven's heir. This is her chance to free
her friend once and for all. But in order for her to ascend, she must
first prove herself to the other gods—and the one person standing in her
way is a fellow Harbinger.
Étienne Beauchard is notorious for
his sly wit and charming good looks. Rose can’t stand that he is the one
assigned to test her abilities, but as their initial hostility evolves
into an intense attraction, they find that the gods’ secrets go deeper
than they ever expected. Something is wrong in the immortal world,
something that threatens to break their bond and engulf them all in war.
As
Rose and Étienne fight to uncover the truth and trust each other with
their hearts, they realize that everything hinges on the same How far
would you go to save the person you love?

New Marie Lu book :D Though, well, I am a little behind on reading her newest books. Oops. But been a fan of her for so many years now, since Legend came out. And so of course I'm buying this newest book by her :) I think it sounds pretty exciting. And I'm so hoping that I will end up loving it a whole bunch. <3
