This is a meme hosted by Should Be Reading. What ya do is post up books that you discovered through bookstores, friends, goodreads etc, whichever way you discovered them. But only post up the books that you discovered during that Friday week only.
Book I found this week:
Publisher: Candlewick Press
Release Date: March 25th 2014 (First Published March 13th 2014)
Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy, Romance, Paranormal
Link: Goodreads
Synopsis (from Goodreads):
Magical realism, lyrical prose, and the pain and passion of human love haunt this hypnotic generational saga.
Foolish love appears to be the Roux family birthright, an ominous forecast for its most recent progeny, Ava Lavender. Ava—in all other ways a normal girl—is born with the wings of a bird.
In a quest to understand her peculiar disposition and a growing desire to fit in with her peers, sixteen-year old Ava ventures into the wider world, ill-prepared for what she might discover and naïve to the twisted motives of others. Others like the pious Nathaniel Sorrows, who mistakes Ava for an angel and whose obsession with her grows until the night of the Summer Solstice celebration.
That night, the skies open up, rain and feathers fill the air, and Ava’s quest and her family’s saga build to a devastating crescendo.
