This week I'm waiting on:
Spell Bound by Rachel Hawkins
Publication date: March 13, 2012
I am eager for the conclusion of this trilogy. Demonglass ended with a major cliffhanger so I can't wait to find out what happens with Sophie, Archer, Jenna, and Cal.
The Death Catchers by Jennifer Anne Kogler
Publication date: August 16, 2011
Synopsis from Goodreads:
On her fourteenth Halloween, Lizzy Mortimer sees her first death-specter.
Confused at first, Lizzy soon learns from her grandmother Bizzy that as Death Catchers, they must prevent fate from taking its course when an unjust death is planned-a mission that has been passed down from their ancestor, Morgan le Fay. Only, Lizzy doesn't expect one of her first cases to land her in the middle of a feud older than time between Morgan le Fay and her sister Vivienne le Mort. Vivienne hopes to hasten the end of the world by preventing Lizzy from saving King Arthur's last descendant-humanity's greatest hope for survival. It's up to Lizzy, as Morgan's earthly advocate, to outwit fate before it's too late.
With its unique spin on Arthurian legend, this fresh, smartly written story will stand out in the paranormal genre.

This sounds really promising. I've always been interested in King Arthur and Morgan le Fay. I am hoping that this will be unique like the synopsis suggests.
great wow, thanks for sharing.
