Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week's pick is This Darkness Mine by Mindy McGinnis
Here is the Goodreads synopsis
This is a autumn release so there is quite a wait for this to be in bookstores, but I predict it will be more than worth the wait.
Expected release date - October 10, 2017
Sasha Stone knows her place—first-chair clarinet, top of her class, and at the side of her oxford-wearing boyfriend. She’s worked her entire life to ensure that her path to Oberlin Conservatory as a star musician is perfectly paved.I am a huge fan of Mindy McGinnis' writing and completely loved The Female Of The Species. This sounds like another dark and twisty read from her and I cannot wait. This has been teased as a 'split-personality love triangle' which intrigues me. It also brings up some pretty big issues that I have no doubt will be handled by Mindy with great care.
But suddenly there’s a fork in the road, in the shape of Isaac Harver. Her body shifts toward him when he walks by, her skin misses his touch even though she’s never known it, and she relishes the smell of him—smoke, beer, and trouble—all the things she’s avoided to get where she is. Even worse, every time he’s near Sasha, her heart stops, literally. Why does he know her so well—too well—and she doesn’t know him at all?
Sasha discovers that her by-the-book life began by ending another’s: the twin sister she absorbed in the womb. But that doesn’t explain the gaps of missing time in her practice schedule or the memories she has of things she certainly never did with Isaac. As Sasha loses her much-cherished control, her life—and heart—become more entangled with Isaac. Armed with the knowledge that her heart might not be hers alone, Sasha must decide what she’s willing to do—and who she’s willing to hurt—to take it back.
Edgar Award–winning author Mindy McGinnis delivers a dark and gripping psychological thriller about a girl at war with herself, and what it really means to be good or bad.

At first glance, when I saw this cover's reveal post, I thought it was the placeholder cover! It's so simple yet SO eye-catching. I've read three of McGinnis's books and I'm about to start my fourth - Given to the Sea. I hope you enjoy this book when you get the chance to read it!
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous week. =)
