[Waiting on Wednesday] #18 - Winter Falls

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, which spotlights upcoming books that we eagerly anticipate and cannot wait to get here!

"Winter Falls" - Nicole Maggi

Winter Falls (Twin Willows, #1)Alessia Jacobs is a typical sixteen-year-old, dying to get out of her small town of Twin Willows, Maine. Things look up when a new family comes to town, but when she falls for the hot, mysterious son, Jonah, her life turns upside down. 

Weird visions of transforming into an otherworldly falcon are just the beginning. Soon she learns she’s part of the Benandanti, an ancient cult of warriors with the unique power to separate their souls from their bodies and take on the forms of magnificent animals. 

Alessia never would’ve suspected it, but her boring town is the site of an epic struggle between the Benandanti and the Malandanti to control powerful magic in the surrounding forest. 

As Alessia is drawn into the Benandanti’s mission, her relationship with Jonah intensifies. When her two worlds collide, Alessia’s forced to weigh choices a sixteen-year-old should never have to make.

WHY AM I WAITING ON IT?

First of all, can we take a moment to admire this cover? All-white-everything is hard to pull off but seriously? IT'S A BEAUTY!!! And there's something badass about owls so I'm super stoked about it. On top of that, it's going to be a trilogy, so you know it's going to be good!

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING ON THIS WEEK?
