Ummm….I need this ASAP please 😀 Spindle Fire by Lexa Hillyer Plus I read that this is a retelling combining not one but two of my favorites: Sleeping Beauty and Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Two sisters, one caught in a sleeping curse and the other on the outside to fight for her kingdom. The title grabbed my attention, no lie, BUT it was the book’s blurb that really hooked me. This week I’m waiting on Spindle Fire by Lexa Hillyer. Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we are all eagerly anticipating.
