But as the web of lies, deceit, and betrayal thickens around her, she finds herself hurtling towards a truth that threatens to consume her and reveal who she really is. In a desperate bid to save her family, Wren takes a dangerous undercover assignment as an intern amidst those who want her dead. But now that power lies with the Judges, who are set on destroying the Augurs for good. Once Wren’s people, the Augurs, controlled an ancient, powerful magic. Thrilling, atmospheric, and filled with ancient magic, this lyrically written YA debut is perfect for readers of The Raven Cycle and Wink Poppy Midnight.Įvery Christmas, Wren is chased through the woods near her isolated Irish village by her family’s enemies–the Judges–and there’s nothing that she or her grandfather can do to stop it. Plus I also love the idea of the main character going undercover in an attempt to save her family from their enemies. I found myself drawn tot his book as soon as I saw that it’s set in Ireland. My selection for this week is THE WREN HUNT by Mary Watson. It is a meme that I have loved participating in for over a year now, but as Jill is no longer actively posting, from now on I’ll just be linking to Can’t Wait Wednesday, hosted by Tressa, which is a spinoff of the original WoW meme.

“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, which encourages fellow bloggers to spotlight upcoming releases that we’re excited about.
