Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine
that showcases upcoming releases that people are very much anticipating.
This week I'm waiting on a book that doesn't come out for awhile. In Julyish I won an ARC of the book, and I'm waiting for it to arrive! (They're not available yet, so it's not the sender's fault!) With Halloween right around the corner, I'm interested in all things related. So, here it is...
Title: The Nightmare Affair
Author: Mindee Arnett
Publisher: Tor Teen
Publishing Date: March 5, 2013
Pages: 352
16-year-old Dusty Everhart breaks into houses late at night, but not because she’s a criminal. No, she’s a Nightmare. Literally. Dusty is a magical being who feeds on human dreams.
Being the only Nightmare at Arkwell Academy, a boarding school for magickind, and living in the shadow of her mother’s infamy is hard enough. But when Dusty sneaks into Eli Booker’s house, things get a whole lot more complicated. He’s hot, which means sitting on his chest and invading his dreams couldn’t get much more embarrassing. But it does. Eli is dreaming of a murder. The setting is Arkwell.
And then it comes true.
Now the Dusty has to follow the clues—both within Eli’s dreams and out of them—to stop the killer before more people turn up dead. And before the killer learns what she’s up to and marks her as the next target.
