Waiting On Wednesday ... The Devouring Gray


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 The Devouring Gray by Christine Lynn Herman


Here is the Goodreads synopsis
On the edge of town a beast haunts the woods, trapped in the Gray, its bonds loosening…

Uprooted from the city, Violet Saunders doesn’t have much hope of fitting in at her new school in Four Paths, a town almost buried in the woodlands of rural New York. The fact that she’s descended from one of the town’s founders doesn’t help much, either—her new neighbours treat her with distant respect, and something very like fear. When she meets Justin, May, Isaac, and Harper, all children of founder families, and sees the otherworldly destruction they can wreak, she starts to wonder if the townsfolk are right to be afraid.

When bodies start to appear in the woods, the locals become downright hostile. Can the teenagers solve the mystery of Four Paths, and their own part in it, before another calamity strikes?
I was intrigued when I saw Stranger Things being used as a comparison for this title. I am even more excited now that I've read the whole synopsis. The vague references to powers ('otherwordly destruction') and the unraveling of a mystery have me firmly invested in getting my hands on this as soon as possible.

The wait for this one is barely anything at all as it comes out in early April!

Expected release date - April 2, 2019
