Waiting on Wednesday: Spell Bound


I think that Wednesday is my favourite day of the week! It may not be as relieving as Friday or the weekend, but it's the day when you get to decide whether your cup is half-empty or half-full! Kind of inspirational, right? :)

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by the awesome Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating! This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is: 

Spell Bound by Rachel Hawkins
Hailed as “impossible to put down,” the Hex Hall series has both critics and teens cheering. With a winning combination of romance, action, magic and humor, this third volume will leave readers enchanted.

Just as Sophie Mercer has come to accept her extraordinary magical powers as a demon, the Prodigium Council strips them away. Now Sophie is defenseless, alone, and at the mercy of her sworn enemies—the Brannicks, a family of warrior women who hunt down the Prodigium. Or at least that’s what Sophie thinks, until she makes a surprising discovery. The Brannicks know an epic war is coming, and they believe Sophie is the only one powerful enough to stop the world from ending. But without her magic, Sophie isn’t as confident.

Sophie’s bound for one hell of a ride—can she get her powers back before it’s too late?

I LOVE THIS SERIES! When it comes to writing snarky characters, Rachel Hawkins is the master. If Spell Bound is anywhere near as fun as Hex Hall or Demonglass, I just know it's going to be a blast! :) 

WHAT BOOK ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

  3. Oh, I love weekend and holiday, but Wednesday does sound like in-between day for me! Such a great way to put Wednesday, Mimi! <3

    I haven't read any of this series yet, but everyone seems to love this book so much! I guess I need to read this book soon! Awesome pick! :)

  7. SO EXCITED FOR THIS! Especially with how things ended in Demonglass, desperate to see what's going to happen next! Love this series. So much fun. March is going to be an amazing month for books :D

  8. Demonglass had such a cliffhanger that it left me dying for this conclusion. I hope I am happy with the romance aspect (CalCalCalCalCal)

  9. I need this book like I need to breathe! I'm so with Bookworm, I need more Cal. I have a feeling I'll be disappointed and she'll end up with Archer (not that I don't enjoy him) but Cal was just so adorable in the last book! SO CLOSE MIMI!

  10. I rarely side with the underdog, but in this case, I'm ALL for Cal. I really love this series too, and although I despise cliffhangers as a rule and I've been known to give up on the series altogether because the author decided to end one of the books with a cliffhanger, I can't wait to get my hands on this.

    Btw, I saw recently that Hex Hall has been translated to my language and I was deliriously happy because now I can make ALL my Croatian friends read it. *rubs hands in glee*

  11. Archer Cross!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, where do I sign up to take that Archer 101 class. I'm so nervous about this book. As much as I love Archer, and want him to get the girl, I also love Cal. He is such a sweetheart and I want a HEA for him too! Gah!!! This is why I loath love-triangles. Someone is going to get hurt, and that makes me sooooo sad. Well, I guess it is for the best because then I can pick up the guy that Sophie tosses aside, which would be a WIN for me either way. :)

    I can not wait to read this book!

  13. I might be the only person left in the book blogosphere to have not read Hex Hall yet *hangs head in shame* LOL. I own books 1&2 in this series tho :) and have been wondering if I should start this series next and you have convinced me to do so, Mademoiselle Mimi. Thanks for sharing :)

  16. I can't wait for you to read it Mimi! And I can't wait to hear what you'll think of something that happens during this book which I am dying to discuss with you! :D Great WOW pick! I can't get enough of these books. :)

  17. Oh my gosh, who ISN'T waiting for this? I have it pre-ordered but I don't think that's fast enough because I want it ASAP! I'm super excited for it. Ha, this made me want to re-read the series again. x

  25. You make the series sound so addictive! I want to get started with the Hex Hall series now! :)

  26. Mimi, this is only my MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF SPRING 2012. Seriously, I am going through Archer withdrawals! How can this be the last book? And why is it we have to wait until March to get it? I know the answer to these things, but I figured you would wail along with me. ;)

    Love this pick...and can't wait to compare notes with you when this book is FINALLY out!

  27. Great pick! I have heard quite a bit about Hex Hall but I haven't gotten around to read it yet. It's even been published in my country, so I think I'll be stopping by the library someday soon.

  28. You"re right I would love to read this book, but I need to read the second one too. The first was awesome!
