Waiting on Wednesday #63 * Sweet Shadows

Sweet Shadows

Gretchen may have known she was a descendant of Medusa long before her sisters—after all, she’s spent her life fighting the monsters that escape the abyss—but that doesn’t mean it will be easy to teach the other girls the ropes. Can she rely on Grace and Greer, or even trust herself to keep them safe?

Greer has pressing social commitments on her plate and precious little time to train in her newfound powers. But that wretched second sight won’t leave her alone, and her fabled heritage seems to be creeping into her fashionable life.

Grace has worries closer to home—like why her brother, Thane, has disappeared. He’s hiding something. Could it possibly be related to the secret heritage the triplets share?

With the warring factions among the gods of Olympus coming for them, the creatures of the abyss pushing into their world, and the boys in their lives hiding secrets at every turn, the three girls must figure out where their fate will take them and how to embrace the shadows of their legacy. (HarperCollins)

I really enjoyed reading Sweet Venom last year, and I'm super excited to get back into this story. I can't wait to see what Gretchen, Grace and Greer do next. :)

What are you Waiting for this week???

    A series involving Medusa — haven't read anything like that. Something new is always interesting.

    Hope you're enjoying The Selection.

    I still need to read Sweet Venom. It has been glaring at me from my shelves, along with all of my other TBR pile prisoners. At least I have some time before this one comes out! Great pick, Christy. :-)

    Can't believe I haven't read SWEET VENOM yet even though I've got a pretty copy of it a while ago. Thanks a lot for reminding me of that part of my to-read list again. ;)

    I still haven't read Sweet Venom yet. I am really wanting to especially since it involves Medusa! It sounds amazing and the sequel sounds just as good.
