Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we are eagerly anticipating.

Wednesday has become my favorite day of the week because I get to share the books that I am super excited about and can't wait to read.

Expected publication: September 20th 2016 by Jimmy Patterson

Synopsis from Goodreads:

Seventeen-year-old Audrey Rose Wadsworth was born a lord's daughter, with a life of wealth and privilege stretched out before her. But between the social teas and silk dress fittings, she leads a forbidden secret life.

Against her stern father's wishes and society's expectations, Audrey often slips away to her uncle's laboratory to study the gruesome practice of forensic medicine. When her work on a string of savagely killed corpses drags Audrey into the investigation of a serial murderer, her search for answers brings her close to her own sheltered world.

The story's shocking twists and turns, augmented with real, sinister period photos, will make this dazzling debut from author Kerri Maniscalco impossible to forget.

I first learned the details about Jack the Ripper when I had to write a report about him in 6th grade. That was back before computers and internet kiddos, so it was all done with research at the library. My parents even had a set of encyclopedias that I used. Ahhh, the good old days.

What are you waiting on this week?

    1. Oh Angela, I was wondering about the pictures in the book also! There ARE photos of the real victims, but I would assume those wouldn't be used since this is YA. Hopefully they are more tasteful. Thanks for stopping by today.
