Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine featuring books we are eagerly anticipating but haven’t the bookshelves yet.
Title: Every Never After by Lesley Livingston
Series: Never (#2)
Publish date: March 12 , 2013
Publisher: Razorbill Canada
Genre: Fantasy/ Time Travel
Format: Paperback
Pages: 256
It’s happening again!
Despite their vow to each other at the end of Once Every Never, best friends Clare and Allie once more find themselves in trouble—and travelling in time. Indulging in a low-key vacation at Glastonbury Tor, taking part in an archaeological dig while soaking up the sights of summertime England, the girls have promised each other: no time travel shenanigans; no involvement with dangerous Druids or villainous museum thieves; and definitely no weirdness about the fact that Clare is now seriously dating Milo, Allie’s super-genius hottie cousin!
But when Allie makes an unexpected discovery at the dig site—a skull—the grisly artifact sends her spiralling back in time to a Roman encampment besieged by rampaging Celts. Caught between the Legions and the war band, Allie is rescued from certain death by Marcus, a young Roman soldier with a secret. As she struggles to survive in the past, Clare and Milo race desperately against time in the present to bring Allie home…before she loses her head OR her heart.
Reason: The cover ! The story sounds interesting since I didn’t realize its a series I would have to read the first book.
Title: Furious by Jill Wolfson
Publish date: April 16, 2013
Publisher: Henry Holt & Co. BYR
Genre: Greek Mythology
Format: Hardcover
Pages: 336
Three high school girls become the avenging Furies of Greek legend.
We were only three angry girls, to begin with. Alix, the hot-tempered surfer chick; Stephanie, the tree-hugging activist; and me, Meg, the quiet foster kid, the one who never quite fit in. We hardly knew each other, but each of us nurtured a burning anger: at the jerks in our class, at our disappointing parents, at the whole flawed, unjust world.
We were only three angry girls, simmering uselessly in our ocean-side California town, until one day a mysterious, beautiful classmate named Ambrosia taught us what else we could be: Powerful. Deadly. Furious.
Reason: I haven’t read anything like it and the cover is awesome.

If you like Furies you should check out Fury by Elizabeth Miles. It’s about a group of kids who the furies deliver “justice” of sorts too. I really enjoyed it!
