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 Hush by Dylan Farrow
Here is the Goodreads synopsis
This seems like it'll be a perfect book for the autumn season for those who don't want something scary but are still looking for a bit of an atmospheric read. It comes out in October and I personally think it is going to pair nicely with my pumpkin spice latte.
Expected release date - October 6, 2020
This week's pick is Hush by Dylan Farrow
How do you speak up in a world where propaganda is a twisted form of magic?The synopsis is pretty intriguing set up to a fantasy series and I am really looking forward to discovering this world. The disease that is spread by ink. A woman finding her voice. The forbidden romance. I am here for all of this.
In the land of Montane, language is literal magic to the select few who possess the gift of Telling. This power is reserved for the Bards, and, as everyone knows, the Bards have almost always been men.
Seventeen-year-old Shae has lived her entire life in awe of the Bards—and afraid of the Blot, a deadly disease spread by ink, which took the life of her younger brother five years ago. Ever since, Shae fears she’s cursed. But when tragedy strikes again, and her mother is found murdered with a golden dagger—a weapon used only by the Bards—Shae is forced to act.
With a heart set on justice, Shae journeys to High House in search of answers. But when the kind, fatherly Cathal, the High Lord of Montane, makes Shae an undeniable offer to stay and train as a Bard, Shae can’t refuse.
Through this twisty tale, Shae endures backbreaking training by a ruthless female Bard, tentative and highly-forbidden feelings for a male Bard with a dark past, and a castle filled with dangerous illusions bent on keeping its secrets buried.
But sometimes, the truth is closer than we think. We just have to learn to listen.
A stunning and timely debut from activist Dylan Farrow, HUSH is a powerful feminist fantasy full of surprising insights, that casts a ray of light into the shadows of a society based on silencing and lies.
This seems like it'll be a perfect book for the autumn season for those who don't want something scary but are still looking for a bit of an atmospheric read. It comes out in October and I personally think it is going to pair nicely with my pumpkin spice latte.
