This week I'm waiting on....
Starling
by: Lesley Livingston
Goodreads Synonpsis:
"Love is just the beginning... of the end."
Mason Starling is a champion fencer for Gosforth Academy, but she’s never had to fight for her life. Until now. When a ferocious storm rips through Manhattan and unleashes terrifying creatures onto Gosforth’s campus, Mason barely escapes alive. Without help from the mysterious stranger who appeared in the midst of the storm, she might not have made it at all. But now, in the aftermath, Mason’s life begins to spin dramatically, mystically out of control, and the only one who seems able to help her is the stranger who can remember nothing but his name: Fennrys Wolf.
As Mason and Fenn uncover more about Fenn’s past and the strange events that surround them, they realize that Mason’s family — and its dark allegiance to the ancient Norse gods — is at the center of everything. A predetermined fate seems to be closing in on Mason, but is it possible to change one’s destiny?

Why I Want This:
I didn't read Lesley Livingston's Wondrous Strange series. OK, I tried, but as I have previously stated? Faeries are not my thing. I could tell it was wonderfully written, but the subject matter wasn't for me. I am so excited for this series so that I can fall in love with Livingston's writings like everyone else.
Starling will be released on 8.15.2012 by HarperTeen
