We wanted to do another bookish meme on Wednesday and after doing Can’t Wait Wednesday a few times we decided that would be a fun one to bring around more often! About twice a month you’ll see this meme on our blog.
Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Breakingthe Spine.
New York Times bestselling author Katherine Arden returns with another creepy, spine-tingling adventure in this follow-up to the critically acclaimed Small Spaces and Dead Voices.
Having met and outsmarted the smiling man in Dead Voices but fearful of when he’ll come again, Ollie, Brian, and Coco are anxiously searching for a way to defeat him once and for all. By staying together and avoiding remote places, they’ve steered clear of him so far but their constant worry and stress is taking a toll on their lives and friendship. So when Ollie’s dad and Coco’s mom plan a “fun” boat trip on Lake Champlain, the three are apprehensive to say the least. They haven’t had the best of luck on their recent trips and even worse their frenemy Phil is on the boat as well. But when a lake monster destroys their boat, they end up shipwrecked on a deserted island. This isn’t just any island though. It’s hidden from the outside world in a fog and unless everyone works together to find a way to escape, they won’t survive long.
I adored Small Spaces and Dead Voices. These MG novels are quite scary and I just can’t put them down haha. I scare quite easily so the fact that I find these scary probably doesn’t mean that much but maybe it’ll help someone decide wether this series is for them.
Dark Waters will be the third book in this series by Katherine Arden. And I couldn’t be more excited. Each book has it’s own plot but there’s also an overall story going on. I especially love the focus on the friendship in these book.
Like I said, I can’t wait for the next book in this series and I’m sure it will be great. Have you read a book in this series yet? Do you enjoy MG books? This might be one for you!
I still haven’t read Arden’s trilogy, which I’ve had on my TBR shelves for awhile now. Dark Waters sounds like it will be good too! I’ll have to check out Dead Voices and Small Spaces as well. I hope you enjoy it when you read it!
