Waiting on Wednesday #19
Ja, men då var det onsdag igen och dags för Waiting on Wednesday #19. En bok som jag tycker verkar väldigt intressant är Let the Sky Fall av Shannon Messenger som kommer ut 5 Mars i år. Visst har vi alla läst böckerna där tjejen har en ängel eller nåt liknande som vakar över henne. Självklart en snygg kille som kan rädda henne ur alla knipor hon inte klarar själv. Men jag tror aldrig jag har läst en bok där tjejen är den som övervakar och räddar killen. Det kan ju kanske bero på att de böckerna jag läser först och främst läses av tjejer och vi helst vill läsa om snygga starka killar som kan rädda oss (prince charming). Men det är roligt att läsa en bok där könsrollerna är ombytta. Att boken sen har ett vackert omslag är ju aldrig fel!
Let the Sky Fall av Shannon Messenger
"Seventeen-year-old Vane Weston has no idea how he survived the category five tornado that killed his parents. And he has no idea if the beautiful, dark-haired girl who’s swept through his dreams every night since the storm is real. But he hopes she is.
Seventeen-year-old Audra is a sylph, an air elemental. She walks on the wind, can translate its alluring songs, and can even coax it into a weapon with a simple string of commands. She’s also a guardian—Vane’s guardian—and has sworn an oath to protect Vane at all costs. Even if it means sacrificing her own life.
When a hasty mistake reveals their location to the enemy who murdered both of their families, Audra’s forced to help Vane remember who he is. He has a power to claim—the secret language of the West Wind, which only he can understand. But unlocking his heritage will also unlock the memory Audra needs him to forget. And their greatest danger is not the warriors coming to destroy them—but the forbidden romance that’s grown between them."
