Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
My pick this week is Worlds of Ink and Shadow: A Novel of the Brontës by Lena Coakley
Here is the Goodreads synopsis
Charlotte, Branwell, Emily, and Anne. The Brontë siblings have always been inseparable. After all, nothing can bond four siblings quite like life in an isolated parsonage out on the moors. Their vivid imaginations lend them escape from their strict upbringing, actually transporting them into their created worlds: the glittering Verdopolis and the romantic and melancholy Gondal. But at what price? As Branwell begins to slip into madness and the sisters feel their real lives slipping away, they must weigh the cost of their powerful imaginations, even as their characters—the brooding Rogue and dashing Duke of Zamorna—refuse to let them go.This book caused quite the stir on the HCC Frenzy Presents event that bloggers recently attended. We all pretty much left there wanting to to read this one. The Bronte siblings combined with magic is automatically going to appeal to book lovers! Very excited to read this and luckily we don't have too long to wait.
Gorgeously written and based on the Brontës’ juvenilia, Worlds of Ink & Shadow brings to life one of history’s most celebrated literary families.
Expected release date - January 5, 2016
