I’m back for a second week in a row with another book I’m looking forward to. Well, sort of. Not really. It’s complicated.
Anyway.
Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Tressa @ Wishful Endings (and was previously hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine where it was known as Waiting on Wednesday) to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. They’re usually books that have not yet been released.
This week’s book is:
Skyshade by Alex Aster! ☁️🐍
So yeah. I’m not exactly looking forward to this one, but I am anticipating the mess that this book is absolutely going to be. I want to hate read this, essentially. Just like I did with Lightlark and Nightbane, the first two books in this disaster of a fantasy series.
Now let me be very clear: hate reading is not something I typically do – I normally try to read books that I like and/or want to read. But the Lightlark Saga is special – I can’t help myself, I definitely mostly want to read this series for the trainwreck.
Skyshade by Alex Aster
SERIES: The Lightlark Saga #3
LENGTH: 384 pages
GENRES: Fantasy, Romance, YA, Fiction
PUBLISHER: Amulet Books
RELEASE DATE: 12 November 2024
BOOK DESCRIPTION:
The pulse-pounding third novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series, The Lightlark Saga, by acclaimed author and #BookTok sensation Alex Aster
Love kills kingdoms…
Back in Grim’s castle on Nightshade, Isla is reeling in the wake of a brutal battle and the devastating truths it exposed. Her future—and the fate of the world—now hinge on a heart split in two.
Past Isla, who fell in love with the ruler of Nightshade, fights to resist feelings she considers treasonous. The Isla of the present, who has seen the ruin her powers can cause, will do anything to save Lightlark and its king.
As the line between enemy and friend is tested, Isla is more desperate than ever to understand the oracle’s final prophecy and change her heartrending fate. But a storm is coming. And with it, a long-buried evil greater than anything the realms have faced before.
With the clock ticking on her destiny and the survival of two warring kingdoms hinging on her own shattered heart, Isla Crown will either save the world—or destroy it.
Are you looking forward to the release of Skyshade? Like, legitimately looking forward to reading it, unlike me? Or are you interested in it for the same reasons I am, lol? What other books are coming out in the next few weeks that you’re looking forward to?
As always, thank you all so much for reading and have a great day/night!
See ya ~Mar
