Waiting On [28]: The Wicked and the Just - J. Anderson Coats

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.


Title: The Wicked and the Just
Author: J. Anderson Coats
Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
Release Date: April 17, 2012

Cecily’s father has ruined her life. He’s moving them to occupied Wales, where the king needs good strong Englishmen to keep down the vicious Welshmen. At least Cecily will finally be the lady of the house.

Gwenhwyfar knows all about that house. Once she dreamed of being the lady there herself, until the English destroyed the lives of everyone she knows. Now she must wait hand and foot on this bratty English girl.

While Cecily struggles to find her place amongst the snobby English landowners, Gwenhwyfar struggles just to survive. And outside the city walls, tensions are rising ever higher—until finally they must reach the breaking point.

I'd say it's time to read something out-of-the-box. I've been spending so much time reading YA and Contemporary, I've completely checked out of other genres. I hope to make up for it by reading this one. I've heard some great things about it. Plus, a lot of YA readers are excited for The Wicked and the Just!

What book are you waiting on this week? Drop it in the comments.
