Waiting on Wednesday #22

Wednesday 18 July 2012.


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Furious
Furious by Jill Wolfson
Release Date: 16th April 2013 
Publishers: Henry Holt and Co. BYR
Target Audience: YA

Three high school girls become the avenging Furies of Greek legend.

We were only three angry girls, to begin with. Alix, the hot-tempered surfer chick; Stephanie, the tree-hugging activist; and me, Meg, the quiet foster kid, the one who never quite fit in. We hardly knew each other, but each of us nurtured a burning anger: at the jerks in our class, at our disappointing parents, at the whole flawed, unjust world.

We were only three angry girls, simmering uselessly in our ocean-side California town, until one day a mysterious, beautiful classmate named Ambrosia taught us what else we could be: Powerful. Deadly. Furious.

Add it to your TBR on Goodreads

What do you think of this one? I want to see what 3 powerful, angry girls can do. You know, "a woman scorned" and all lol. What are you waiting on this Wednesday, leave me a link and I'll stop by.

I haven't heard of this one but I'll be adding it to my wishlist. I love Greek mythology so this is right up my alley. It should be interesting to see what the three girls are capable of doing, Suzanne.
