Can’t Wait Wednesday // Wednesday Shelf Control

Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. 

#CWW – Natural Sorcery Marina Ermakova

Paranormal/ Mythological Alternative Reality

Goodreads – https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/53180797-natural-sorcery

Release Date – 23rd April 2021

Synopsis
Rome was supposed to be safe–or at least safer than 90% of the planet. That was before the local legends started using their magic to destroy the food supply.
Considered one of Rome’s experts on legends, mostly because she keeps surviving their assassination attempts, Jordan finds herself racing to find the culprits before they strike again. But legends wield powers that aren’t documented, understood, or predictable. And Jordan isn’t even a soldier. She’s just some scientist unlucky enough to stumble over the local political mess.
The chances of getting murdered by magic beyond her comprehension is disconcertingly high. But if this unknown legend goes unchecked, Rome won’t survive the next few years…and Jordan doesn’t have it in her to walk away from that.
Book 2 in the Jordan Sanders series, beginning with Terrestrial Magic.

Shelf Control – Nepenthe (We Are Nepenthe #1) Octavia Hyde

This has been sitting on my kindle for far too long and since it’s a fairly quick, fun and silly read it might be the perfect piece of brain fluff to get me out of my reading rut.


Colonisation Science Fiction eBooks

Synopsis
“It will take the whole night at least,” he said, “to implant all my eggs.”
The colony planet is a death trap. Only the tiniest fraction of humanity survives the gruesome rejection virus.

And then the aliens arrive.

The Nepenthe, too, seek a new home world, but discover instead a species capable of incubating their precious eggs: humans.

The two dying races can either reach an agreement to help each other live on … or prepare for extinction.

So my fellow book lovers – what are you currently reading and is it from your TBR list?
