Waiting on Wednesday: The Goddess Test

"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.


My selection for this week is:



The Goddess Test by Aimee Carter
Publication Date: April 19th 2011
Publisher: Harlequin Teen



Summary from Goodreads:
It's always been just Kate and her mom--and now her mother is dying. Her last wish? To move back to her childhood home. So Kate's going to start at a new school with no friends, no other family and the fear her mother won't live past the fall.

Then she meets Henry. Dark. Tortured. And mesmerizing. He claims to be Hades, god of the Underworld--and if she accepts his bargain, he'll keep her mother alive while Kate tries to pass seven tests.

Kate is sure he's crazy--until she sees him bring a girl back from the dead. Now saving her mother seems crazily possible. If she succeeds, she'll become Henry's future bride, and a goddess.

If she fails...


What i think:   
Lately, the books that evolve around Greek myths are becoming more and more.And The Goddess Test in particular seem to be among the most interesting ones out there.The cover art is beautiful and along with the interesting premise,this book is among those i'm dying to read this year.

    Just found out about this book from another person's WoW, it looks like its going to be amazing. I loved the Percy Jackson books, so I'm sure I'll love another series based off of Greek mythology and this one seems more aimed at girls so even better :D

    Here is my WoW, http://miss-check-out.blogspot.com/2011/03/waiting-on-wednesday-1.html

    I just got approved for this on Netgalley. I am so excited to start reading it. It looks fantastic. I think the greek gods are going to be the next big thing. I just finished Starcrossed, which has that theme too.

    Here's what I'm waiting on.....http://bookmomma.wordpress.com/2011/03/02/waiting-on-wednesday-dead-reckoning/
