WWW Wednesdays (63) / Waiting on Wednesday (63): Ensnared

To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…

• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?








Hey guys! I'm back with Wednesday post! Gosh, I missed this. Here are my books since where I last left off. :)

Currently Reading:

Say What You Will by Cammie McGovern for a blog tour. Tour stop will be on June 4th.


Finished Reading:


The Falconer by Elizabeth May (review here), I Heart Beat by Edyth Bulbring (review here), and Wings by Elizabeth Richards (review here). I also read a non-fiction Christian book during my board exams--which helped me a lot--called The Prayer of Jabez: Breaking Through to the Blessed Life by Bruce Wilkinson. It is about Jabez, a character in Bible. Though he was mentioned once and on short paragraph, his life changed with a simple yet believing prayer. His prayer was explained by author Bruce Wilkinson in this book.


Read Next:

Exile by Kevin Emerson







Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, originally started by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that highlights upcoming book releases everyone is waiting on.

Ensnared
(Splintered #3)
by A.G Howard

Expected publication: 2015 by Amulet Books

Blurb (Goodreads):
After surviving a disastrous battle at prom, Alyssa has embraced her madness and gained perspective. She’s determined to rescue her two worlds and the people and netherlings she loves. Even if it means challenging Queen Red to a final battle of wills and wiles... and even if the only way to Wonderland, now that the rabbit hole is closed, is through the looking-glass world—a parallel dimension filled with mutated and sadistic netherling outcasts.


In the final installment of the Splintered trilogy, Alyssa and her dad journey into the heart of magic and mayhem in search of her mom and to set right all that’s gone wrong. Together with Jeb and Morpheus, they must salvage Wonderland from the decay and destruction that has ensnared it. But even if everyone succeeds and comes out alive, can they all truly have their happily ever after?





I've been a fan of Splintered ever since I read it. I love it so much. I have the second book, Unhinged, on my shelf but I won't be able to read it until July because of my to-review books, but I'm already waiting for the last book, Ensnared! And look at that cover! I LOVE IT. *grabby hands*

*If you're a Filipino/living in the Philippines and you love Splintered as much as I do, feel free to follow the Philippine street team I created exclusively for Splintered series: @SplinteredPH If you're not a Filipino, but loves Splintered, we'd also appreciate if you follow and spread the word about it! :D

    1. Oh, you should definitely read The Prayer of Jabez! (I'm started praying Jabez's prayer after reading that one. ;)
      And you should also read Splintered. Like, now! :)

  12. I haven't read any of the Splintered series yet, but that cover just creeps me out! In a good way, but still, creepy. I also definitely want to read Say What You Will and Exile, so I am curious to read your thoughts on them. And happy blogoversary :)

  14. Hi Michelle! Gorgeous cover of another A.G. Howard book. I'm also Filipino, by the way. And you have a great blog! I actually haven't started this series yet although I have Splintered on my shelf. I haven't gotten around to reading it yet. And thanks for dropping by my WoW last week :)
