Waiting on Wednesday (2)

 
"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that allows us to appropriately squeal over upcoming releases.

THIS WEEK'S PICK:
 Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor
Series: Daughter of Smoke & Bone
Publication Date: November 6th, 2012
Publisher: Little, Brown & Company
 
In this stunning sequel to the highly acclaimed "Daughter of Smoke and Bone," Karou must come to terms with who and what she is, and how far she'll go to avenge her people. Filled with heartbreak and beauty, mysteries and secrets, new characters and old favorites, Days of Blood and Starlight brings the richness, color and intensity of the first book to a brand new canvas.

Daughter of Smoke and Bone was declared a "must read" by Entertainment Weekly, was named a Best Book of the Year by Amazon.com, and The New York Times called it "a breath-catching romantic fantasy.
This cover is so much better than the cover for the first. Red and black is my favorite combination. I'm really excited for this book; towards the end of the first one, I really couldn't sum up the energy to care what happened anymore. But I've had a while to mull over it, and I'm really excited to be brought back into the world Taylor has created.

What did you choose for this week's WoW? Comment and let me know!

    I love red and black covers too. I picked one for My WOW this week also. I like this cover better than the first too. You can see more of her face in this one. I wonder what the title means? Can't wait!
