“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that I’m eagerly anticipating.
Dance of Shadows (Dance of Shadows #1)
By Yelena BlackPublisher: Bloomsbury USA Children’s Books
Publication Date: November 27, 2012
Genre: Young Adult ParanormalVanessa Adler isn’t so sure she really belongs at the School of American Ballet. But dance runs in her family. It’s been a part of her life for as long as she can remember. Her grandmother and mother were prima ballerinas, and her older sister Margaret was, too. That is, until Margaret mysteriously disappeared from school three years ago. Vanessa is heir to the family’s gift and the only person who can fulfill her sister’s destiny. She has no choice.
But she never could have guessed how dangerous the school is. The infamous choreographer, Josef, isn’t just ruthless with his pupils, he guards a sinister secret, one in which the school’s dancers—prized for their beauty, grace, and discipline—become pawns in a world of dark, deadly demons.
Goodreads Summary
First? Cover luuuussst. I know I’ve probably seen this before on someone’s list but I never added it to my shelves at Goodreads at the time. So it’s new to me now! I’ve heard this is a little Black Swan-ish which I love. I only have three months to wait, too – that almost never happens.
Woo hoo! First comment.
Seriously. You’re killing me with these gorgeous covers. Or should I say gooorrgeeeeoouussss ccooovveerrrsss?!
Yes, it’s past my bed time. Crazy things happen after midnight.
You nut.
I went to bed at a NORMAL time (well, 11:30) and didn’t even get this up over at Breaking the Spine until 4. I’m a such a crazy rebel slacker.
This cover is absolutely GORGEOUS! I really like the colours. plus, the whole crazy dance teacher thing makes me really excited!
