Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine that gives bloggers a chance to spotlight upcoming releases. This week, I decided to choose Of Poseidon by Anna Banks. It sounds sort of different and just look at that pretty cover!
(Goodreads) Summary: Galen is the prince of the Syrena, sent to land to find a girl he’s heard can communicate with fish. Emma is on vacation at the beach. When she runs into Galen—literally, ouch!—both teens sense a connection. But it will take several encounters, including a deadly one with a shark, for Galen to be convinced of Emma’s gifts. Now, if he can only convince Emma that she holds the key to his kingdom . . .
Told from both Emma and Galen’s points of view, here is a fish-out-of-water story that sparkles with intrigue, humor, and waves of romance.
Of Poseidon is expected to hit shelves on May 22nd, 2012. What are you guys waiting on?
Oh man I can't wait to read this! I actually have it already shame on me but will have to read it closer to the release date! I can't wait. I've heard it is awesome and I love things about mermaids/water mythology.

I really love mermaid stories, but haven't loved a lot of the ones that have come out recently. I have high hopes for this one. Please check out my Waiting on Wednesday!

Great pick! I read this one a few weeks ago and it was amazing! I seriously loved it and it may be one of my favorite books this year so far. Mermaids are becoming my new favorite genre. I hope you enjoy Of Poseidon as well!

Good choice! Mermaids seem to be getting a bit more attention nowadays... Enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteThis was such a highly effective visitor publish. As an ambitious writer, being rejected is always terrifying (yet so possible) result - if I ever posted my guide, of course. I appreciate Jill for discussing her issues, and I'm so grateful that she made the decision to look previous the denials and perform around them and get her guide out there. That was amazingly brave! Asylum looks fairly exciting, too, so I'll be maintaining an eye out for your evaluation.
ReplyDeleteThanks for discussing, you two!
