This week I am waiting on
The Library of Fates by Aditi Khorana
Publication Date: July 18th 2017
Goodreads Summary
A romantic coming-of-age fantasy tale steeped in Indian folklore, perfect for fans of The Star-Touched Queen and The Wrath and the Dawn
No one is entirely certain what brings the Emperor Sikander to Shalingar. Until now, the idyllic kingdom has been immune to his many violent conquests. To keep the visit friendly, Princess Amrita has offered herself as his bride, sacrificing everything—family, her childhood love, and her freedom—to save her people. But her offer isn’t enough.
The unthinkable happens, and Amrita finds herself a fugitive, utterly alone but for an oracle named Thala, who was kept by Sikander as a slave and managed to escape amid the chaos of a palace under siege. With nothing and no one else to turn to, Amrita and Thala are forced to rely on each other. But while Amrita feels responsible for her kingdom and sets out to warn her people, the newly free Thala has no such ties. She encourages Amrita to go on a quest to find the fabled Library of All Things, where it is possible for each of them to reverse their fates. To go back to before Sikander took everything from them.
Stripped of all that she loves, caught between her rosy past and an unknown future, will Amrita be able to restore what was lost, or does another life—and another love—await?
Look at that beauty!!! Talk about cover goals. I love folklore and fantasy so this is a perfect combination. Admittedly until I read the summary I had no idea what this story was about but it sounds magical, romantic and mysterious. I’m intrigued by the world but it looks like one that’s full of secrets and if there’s one thing I love, it’s unraveling secrets.

Amazing choice! I heard about this book just a little while ago, and added it to my TBR right away. That stunning cover and intriguing synopsis, I couldn’t resist. Hope it’s as good at it sounds 🙂

I’m seriously tempted to buy the book for the cover alone. Here’s hoping it lives up to expectations.

My most anticipated book list just got a bit smaller. A bunch of them came out yesterday. I’m excited to read Damaged Like Us by Krista & Becca Ritchie.
