Waiting on Wednesday: Furthermore by Tahereh Mafi


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. This week's pick is: 


Furthermore by Tahereh Mafi
To be published on August 30, 2016 by Dutton Books for Young Readers

The bestselling author of the Shatter Me series takes readers beyond the limits of their imagination in this captivating new middle grade adventure where color is currency, adventure is inevitable, and friendship is found in the most unexpected places.

There are only three things that matter to twelve-year-old Alice Alexis Queensmeadow: Mother, who wouldn't miss her; magic and color, which seem to elude her; and Father, who always loved her. The day Father disappears from Ferenwood he takes nothing but a ruler with him. But it's been almost three years since then, and Alice is determined to find him. She loves her father even more than she loves adventure, and she's about to embark on one to find the other.

But bringing Father home is no small matter. In order to find him she'll have to travel through the mythical, dangerous land of Furthermore, where down can be up, paper is alive, and left can be both right and very, very wrong. Her only companion is a boy named Oliver whose own magical ability is based in lies and deceit--and with a liar by her side in a land where nothing is as it seems, it will take all of Alice's wits (and every limb she's got) to find Father and return home to Ferenwood in one piece. On her quest to find Father, Alice must first find herself--and hold fast to the magic of love in the face of loss.


Why I'm waiting:
  • New Tahereh Mafi book!!!!! I'm a big fan of the Shatter Me series, and I know this isn't YA but middle grade so it probably won't have amazing kissing scenes still, is pretty exciting, I can't wait to read something new from her and this sounds like something completely different from Shatter Me, bring it on!
Are you waiting for this book? Have you read it yet? Let me know!
