Waiting on Wedneday #23: Rebel Belle by Rachel Hawkins

 

Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, which spotlights upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating.

The book I'm eagerly looking forward to is:

Rebel Belle

Rebel Belle by Rachel Hawkins
Expected Publication Date: April 8th 2014
Publisher: Putnam Juvenile

About the book: Harper Price, peerless Southern belle, was born ready for a Homecoming tiara. But after a strange run-in at the dance imbues her with incredible abilities, Harper's destiny takes a turn for the seriously weird. She becomes a Paladin, one of an ancient line of guardians with agility, super strength and lethal fighting instincts.

Just when life can't get any more disastrously crazy, Harper finds out who she's charged to protect: David Stark, school reporter, subject of a mysterious prophecy and possibly Harper's least favorite person. But things get complicated when Harper starts falling for him--and discovers that David's own fate could very well be to destroy Earth.

With snappy banter, cotillion dresses, non-stop action and a touch of magic, this new young adult series from bestseller Rachel Hawkins is going to make y'all beg for more.



I loved Rachel Hawkins Demonglass series, so I’ve been eagerly anticipating this read for some time.  She has a clever sense of humor and I love the sound of a kick-ass Southern Belle!  Plus, it sounds like this romance is of the hate to love variety and it’s so much fun to watch those sparks fly! And just look at that cover! I want!!

So what are you dying to read?  Link me up and I’ll stop on by!

    I have yet to read a book by Rachel Hawkins, but I've heard they're fun. And this looks fun, and I like fun! Plus, I'm kinda digging the cover.

    I've seen this cover around and though I wasn't a fan of the Demonglass Series, this seems interesting. I'll definitely be on the lookout for your thoughts once this releases. Great pick, Rachel!

    I was totally drawn to this book by the cover, it's gorgeous! I love the story of Beauty and the Beast, so this really could interest me, I'll have to keep any eye out for it.

    So I have a confession to make: I am a terrible reader and have not read anything of Rachel Hawkins. Yet. Her books sound amazing, though, and I hope I'll get to read them sooner rather than later. Lovely pick, Rachel! :)

    I am hoping that this series will continue after her last book debuted and then the series was dropped! This one looks like fun and it sounds different.

    I've never read anything by Rachel Hawkins! Is that a problem? LOL. I hope to rectify that at some point... but her books never seemed to grab my attention.

    Nevertheless, I hope you love this one! :)
