Hi dear friends!
It seems that I loved posting about Can’t Wait Wednesday last week so I decided to have a redo!
Can’t Wait Wednesday/Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Wishful Endings and was previously hosted by Breaking the Spine. It was created to show off a future release that you are excited for.
So what’s the book?
Well last week you got Susan Ee and this week you get Amy Harmon! 😍😍😍
I can’t wait to read The First Girl Child! More fantasy by Amy!!!!
Synopsis
From the New York Times bestselling author comes a breathtaking fantasy of a cursed kingdom, warring clans, and unexpected salvation.
Bayr of Saylok, bastard son of a powerful and jealous chieftain, is haunted by the curse once leveled by his dying mother. Bartered, abandoned, and rarely loved, she plagued the land with her words: From this day forward, there will be no daughters in Saylok.
Raised among the Keepers at Temple Hill, Bayr is gifted with inhuman strength. But he’s also blessed with an all-too-human heart that beats with one purpose: to protect Alba, the first girl child born in nearly two decades and the salvation for a country at risk.
Now the fate of Saylok lies with Alba and Bayr, whose bond grows deeper with every whisper of coming chaos. Charged with battling the enemies of their people, both within and without, Bayr is fueled further by the love of a girl who has defied the scourge of Saylok.
What Bayr and Alba don’t know is that they each threaten the king, a greedy man who built his throne on lies, murder, and betrayal. There is only one way to defend their land from the corruption that has overtaken it. By breaking the curse, they could defeat the king…but they could also destroy themselves.
And you? What’s the book you can’t wait to read this week?
Thanks for reading!

You are most welcome Sophie!!!
I like the name ‘Alba’… dawn. 🙂
I like …everything by her Nina! If you’ve never tried her trust me pick one of her books and you won’t be disappointed (knowing you begin with her historicals From Sand and Ash or What the Wind Knows).

Lindsi @ Do You Dog-ear?
I hope you’ll love it Lindis as Amy is fantastic!
I love that you’re enjoying so much fantasy, and reading the blurb, this one does sound like it has all the right ingredients! As for me, I have 3 books left on my TBR pile but haven’t picked any of them up, as yet. I don’t know why.
And now I’ve seen your long wish list!!!
Ooh, I can see why you want to read this one!
Well for one she is my top favorite author Laura!
