This week, I'm looking forward to...

Poison Princess (The Arcana Chronicles #1)

by Kresley Cole

Release Date: October 2nd 2012 
by Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers
Hardcover, 384 pages

Goodreads:
Sixteen-year-old Evie Greene thought her horrific apocalyptic hallucinations were a sign that she was slowly losing her mind. But when her visions come true, decimating the world around her and killing everyone she loves, Evie is forced to accept that she was seeing the future.

Fighting for her life and desperate for answers, she turns to wrong-side-of-the-bayou classmate, the gorgeous and dangerous Jackson Deveaux for help. As Jackson and Evie race to find the source of her visions, they meet others who have got the same call and discover that Evie is not the only one with special powers. An ancient prophesy is being played out, and as the battle between good and evil intensifies, it is not always clear who is on which side…

Eep! I'm so excited about this one! I already spotted a few glowing reviews here and there, but we're talking Kresley Cole here, so of course this book is going to be awesome! I came to her books really late (I did a marathon of her Immortal After Dark series and read all books back to back this past spring) and I became addicted to her writing! I can't wait to see her take on YA. She's fabulous at creating original worlds, witty, kick-ass characters and sizzling romance! So, strong heroine, gorgeous and dangerous hero, ancient prophecies and the good ol' battle between good and evil? WIN!

What are you waiting on this week?
