Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine spotlighting upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating.

A thrilling, seductive new series from New York Times bestselling author Sarah J. Maas, blending Beauty and the Beast with faerie lore.

When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a beast-like creature arrives to demand retribution for it. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she only knows about from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not an animal, but Tamlin—one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled their world.

As she dwells on his estate, her feelings for Tamlin transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie and warning she's been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But an ancient, wicked shadow grows over the faerie lands, and Feyre must find a way to stop it . . . or doom Tamlin—and his world—forever.

Perfect for fans of Kristin Cashore and George R. R. Martin, this first book in a sexy and action-packed new series is impossible to put down!

Is there anyone who is not excited to read Sarah J. Maas's A Court of Thorns and Roses? Inspired by Beauty and the Beast and faerie lore, such as the ballad of Tamlin, ACOTAR is one of most highly anticipated reads of 2015! I have no doubts that Sarah J. Maas has written another breathtaking, magical, and absolutely compelling high fantasy novel that will sweep readers away to another world. I'm definitely counting down the days until I can get my hands on a copy of this book!
