Waiting On Wednesday (3): Timeless (Parasol Protectorate #5) by Gail Carriger

5Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill @ Breaking The Spine.

Yeah, yeah... I know. Everyone and their brother's dad's aunt's cousin's girlfriend's ex-neighbor's dog has posted some sort of "WANT IT NOW!!!" post on their blog about this book. And now I'm doing one...

I'm not a follower... I'm just taking my rightful place in the "In Crowd". That's all.

That being said... I WANT!!! Luckily my wait isn't very long. :D

PS. As much as I love these books, I am not loving the brown, orange, yellow, and sepia combo on this cover, and "Alexia" looks like she's taken a page out of Scarlett O'Hara's book and put on some curtains.

I'll still buy it. Who am I kidding? *sigh* Addiction is turrible. ....More please.

Waiting On Wednesday (2): The Wind Through The Keyhole by Stephen King

Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill @ Breaking The Spine.

I don't do very many of these, because I don't usually keep up with new release books... so when I do post one, it's a book that I am REALLY looking forward to.


I am practically frothing at the mouth over this one. O_O

I am a huge Dark Tower fan. I'm a mega-huge Stephen King fan. In fact, the only other Waiting on Wednesday post I've done was for another Stephen King book. I don't wait for a lot of books... but I'll wait for Stephen King. Oh yes.

So this is a big freakin' deal to me. Another Dark Tower book. Another chance to be with some of my favorite characters of all time. More Mid-World, more everything. MORE AWESOME. I just feel it in my bones. SQUEE!

And just when I thought it couldn't possibly get any more exciting, a friend pointed me toward this amazingly gorgeous set of DT books being released in a few days:


I WANT!!
(Now I know what my tax refund is being spent on!)

Waiting on Wednesday (1) - Full Dark, No Stars by Stephen King

Waiting on Wednesday was started by Jill over at Breaking the Spine.

Full Dark, No Stars by Stephen King
Summary (from Goodreads):
A new collection of four never-before-published stories from Stephen King.
1922
The story opens with the confession of Wilfred James to the murder of his wife, Arlette, following their move to Hemingford, Nebraska onto land willed to Arlette by her father.
Big Driver
Mystery writer, Tess, has been supplementing her writing income for years by doing speaking engagements with no problems. But following a last-minute invitation to a book club 60 miles away, she takes a shortcut home with dire consequences.
Fair Extension
Harry Streeter, who is suffering from cancer, decides to make a deal with the devil but, as always, there is a price to pay.
A Good Marriage
Darcy Anderson learns more about her husband of over twenty years than she would have liked to know when she stumbles literally upon a box under a worktable in their garage.


I love Stephen King's short stories and novellas. His stories are so complete and fulfilling, and even when they stories run just a few pages, I feel like I have experienced the story along with the characters that we meet within the pages. 


Six days and counting... :D
