Waiting on Wednesday #37 Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins


Sweet EvilWaiting on Wednesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by Breaking the Spine where we show off books that we want to read but have not been published yet. 

Title:  Sweet Evil
Author:  Wendy Higgins
Release Date: 1 May 2012  (HarperTeen)
Link to / Summary from Goodreads:  What if there were teens whose lives depended on being bad influences? This is life for sons and daughters of fallen angels in Sweet Evil. 
Tenderhearted Southern girl, Anna Whitt, was born with the sixth sense to see and feel emotions of other people. She’s aware of a struggle within herself, an inexplicable pull toward danger, but it isn’t until she turns sixteen and meets the alluring Kaidan Rowe that she discovers her terrifying heritage, and her will-power is put to the test. He’s the boy your daddy warned you about. If only someone had warned Anna. 
A cross-country trip to meet her father forces Anna to face the reality that hope and love are not options for her kind. When she confronts her destiny, will Anna embrace her halo or her horns?
Why I want it:  Children of fallen angels that have to be kind of evil? Demons, angels and (from existing reviews) a new take on everything? Definitely my kind of thing. Oh, and that cover? Gorgeous.

And some news-y stuff.

My book club friend Lillian has started her own blog!  She’s not really done much...but she’s only been going for five days. Go check her blog, Good Reading Lists, out, and let us both know what you think!

And...Our librarian is a traitor. Really.  Well, maybe not. But we were planning to go as a book club to see  The Hunger Games together. The whole book club. All of us. Because it worked with Harry Potter (without her). But, we all wanted to see it together.  So I ask her about when we’ll go see it. She says “I’m seeing it on Friday.” Strike one. Then “I’m going with a friend.” Understandable. Strike two. Then... “I couldn’t possibly be seen going with you”. Strike three. It’s not like we’d be insane and show her up, would we?

    I've seen this Sweet Evil book around. I haven't decided if I'm going to add it to my TBR list yet.

  3. o.o What is wrong with your bookclub-person? O.O

    Why Friday, though? I'm going to see it tomorrow. Or is it one of the times where we in Germany are privileged and can see it earlier than the rest of the world? ROFL
