Waiting on Wednesday #47
Yet another week, and yet another book I’m really lusting after! I’m waiting on Rules for Stealing Stars, which is scheduled to release on September 29th by Katherine Tegen Books.
Rules for Stealing Stars – Corey Ann Haydu
Silly is used to feeling left out. Her three older sisters think she’s too little for most things—especially when it comes to dealing with their mother’s unpredictable moods and outbursts. But for Silly, that’s normal. She hardly remembers a time when Mom wasn’t drinking.
This summer, Silly is more alone than ever, and it feels like everyone around her is keeping secrets. Mom is sick all the time, Dad acts like everything’s fine when clearly it isn’t, and Silly’s sisters keep whispering and sneaking away to their rooms together, returning with signs that something mysterious is afoot, and giggling about jokes that Silly doesn’t understand.
When Silly is brought into her sisters’ world, the truth is more exciting than she ever imagined. The sisters have discovered a magical place that gives them what they truly need: an escape from the complications of their home life. But there are dark truths there, too. Silly hopes the magic will be the secret to saving their family, but she’s soon forced to wonder if it just might tear them apart.
Thanks for stopping by, have a fantastic Wednesday! Don’t forget to leave me a link in your comment so I can come and check out your Waiting on Wednesday post, too.
Wow – I love the idea that the sisters find a magical place to escape to. But of course, there’s always darkness where there’s light. This sounds like a compelling read, Lexxie. And once again, you’re adding books to my TBR. 😉 That’s your job though, right?!?
Happy Wednesday!! **BIG HUGS**
Of course that’s my job, Brandee 🙂 What fun would it be adding books to my TBR without having you add books to yours at the same time?
*BIG HUGS*

I wasn’t sure about this book when I saw the cover, but after reading the summary, I’m definitely curious.
Check out my WOW – Vicious Cycle
I hope the story will live up to that summary, Stina!
Sounds good! The cover’s pretty too!
I agree on both counts, Lizzie!
Interesting pick! I can’t wait to see how you like it.
I hope I’ll be able to find that out very soon, Kayla 🙂
This sounds really good! I love the mix of dark reality and (possibly even darker) magic. Fun!
That’s exactly what made me want to pick this one up, too, Caryn 🙂
