Waiting On Wednesday. 08.02.17.
Goodmorning guys ! I know, I know.. it has been a while. I was really busy at work the last couple of weeks and the time I had left I wanted to spend with my books and my husband. But for now, things have slowed down a bit, so I have some breathing room to get back to everything !
But well, let's get back on topic. It is a new Wednesday, so this means another waiting on ! I noticed this one yesterday when I was on Goodreads, and I immidiately thought of this meme ! So here it is !
The Library of Fates by Aditi Khorana
Release Date. 18th of July 2017
Release Date. 18th of July 2017
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?
