Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly post started by the book blog Breaking The Spines to spotlight upcoming releases.
This week I will be spotlighting…..
Rebel of The Sands by Alwyn Hamilton
Publisher: Penguin
Pages: 400
Release Date: March 8, 2016
Summary: She’s more gunpowder than girl—and the fate of the desert lies in her hands.
Mortals rule the desert nation of Miraji, but mystical beasts still roam the wild and barren wastes, and rumor has it that somewhere, djinni still practice their magic. But there’s nothing mystical or magical about Dustwalk, the dead-end town that Amani can’t wait to escape from.
Destined to wind up “wed or dead,” Amani’s counting on her sharpshooting skills to get her out of Dustwalk. When she meets Jin, a mysterious and devastatingly handsome foreigner, in a shooting contest, she figures he’s the perfect escape route. But in all her years spent dreaming of leaving home, she never imagined she’d gallop away on a mythical horse, fleeing the murderous Sultan’s army, with a fugitive who’s wanted for treason. And she’d never have predicted she’d fall in love with him…or that he’d help her unlock the powerful truth of who she really is.
To be honest, this book is #1 on my 2016 TBR! This book sounds amazing and I love desert settings! From a short sample I read, I can tell I will really love this book and I have a feeling this book will be pretty big! 😀
And made a bookmark based on the cover ❤

I am so excited about this book. I’ve always been fascinated by the mythology of the djinn and I am so happy to see it being incorporated in this book. I hope you get your hands on the book ASAP.
