And the Can’t-Wait Wednesday streak continues! There are so many new books coming out lately that I’m interested in!
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:
Emily Wilde’s Compendium of Lost Tales by Heather Fawcett!! 📔🌳
Now this – this is definitely one of my most anticipated books of 2025! I love the Emily Wilde series, and I’m really excited for this coming release!
Emily Wilde’s Compendium of Lost Tales by Heather Fawcett
SERIES: Emily Wilde #3
LENGTH: 352 pages
GENRES: Fantasy, Fiction
PUBLISHER: Del Rey
RELEASE DATE: 11 February 2025
BOOK DESCRIPTION:
The third installment in the heartwarming and enchanting Emily Wilde series, about a curmudgeonly scholar of folklore and the fae prince she loves.
Emily Wilde has spent her life studying faeries. A renowned dryadologist, she has documented hundreds of species of Folk in her Encyclopaedia of Faeries. Now she is about to embark on her most dangerous academic project yet: studying the inner workings of a faerie realm—as its queen.
Along with her former academic rival—now fiancé—the dashing and mercurial Wendell Bambleby, Emily is immediately thrust into the deadly intrigues of Faerie as the two of them seize the throne of Wendell’s long-lost kingdom, which Emily finds a beautiful nightmare filled with scholarly treasures.
Emily has been obsessed with faerie stories her entire life, but at first she feels as ill-suited to Faerie as she did to the mortal world: How can an unassuming scholar such as herself pass for a queen? Yet there is little time to settle in, for Wendell’s murderous stepmother has placed a deadly curse upon the land before vanishing without a trace. It will take all of Wendell’s magic—and Emily’s knowledge of stories—to unravel the mystery before they lose everything they hold dear.
Are you looking forward to the release of Emily Wilde’s Compendium of Lost Tales? 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 fantastic day/night!
See ya ~Mar
