Waiting on Wednesday #16: The Chaos of the Stars


Waiting on Wednesday is a wonderful meme created by Jill from Breaking the Spine where we highlighted an upcoming release that we're eagerly anticipating.


The Chaos of Stars
by Kiersten White
Expected publication: September 10th 2013
by HarperTeen
Summary from Goodreads:

Isadora’s family is seriously screwed up.
Of course, as the human daughter of Egyptian gods, that pretty much comes with the territory. She’s also stuck with parents who barely notice her, and a house full of relatives who can’t be bothered to remember her name. After all, they are going to be around forever—and she’s a mere mortal.

Isadora’s sick of living a life where she’s only worthy of a passing glance, and when she has the chance to move to San Diego with her brother, she jumps on it. But Isadora’s quickly finding that a “normal” life comes with plenty of its own epic complications—and that there’s no such thing as a clean break when it comes to family. Much as she wants to leave her past behind, she can’t shake the ominous dreams that foretell destruction for her entire family. 

When it turns out there may be truth in her nightmares, Isadora has to decide whether she can abandon her divine heritage after all.


Babble:
What? Another Kiersten White's book for this year? I can't believe it! How did she come out with not one but two new series in a year? But, I'm not complaining though. I'm a big fan of hers since the debut of Paranormalcy. Egyptian mythology? My..my. What's next for Ms. White? A dystopian, perhaps?
