Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where we share what books we are most looking forward to.
Tyger Tyger
by: Kersten Hamiltion
Publication Date: Nov. 15th 2010! SO CLOSE!!
From Goodreads:
Teagan Wylltson's best friend, Abby, dreams that horrifying creatures--goblins, shape-shifters, and beings of unearthly beauty but terrible cruelty--are hunting Teagan. Abby is always coming up with crazy stuff, though, so Teagan isn't worried. Her life isn't in danger. In fact, it's perfect. She's on track for a college scholarship. She has a great job. She's focused on school, work, and her future. No boys, no heartaches, no problems.
Until Finn Mac Cumhaill arrives. Finn's a bit on the unearthly beautiful side himself. He has a killer accent and a knee-weakening smile. And either he's crazy or he's been haunting Abby's dreams, because he's talking about goblins, too . . . and about being The Mac Cumhaill, born to fight all goblin-kind. Finn knows a thing or two about fighting. Which is a very good thing, because this time, Abby's right.
The goblins are coming.
Super exctied for this one. I haven't read too many books with goblins in them. Except of course Lord of the Rings and ya know Spiderman had The Green Goblin, and he wasn't all that bad. Goblins always seem to be getting a bad rap though, which is too bad because they seem to be talented in quite a lot of things ranging from weapon making to being ugly. Poor guys! Has anyone even tried to talk to them? Maybe they are really gentle creatures once you break through that protective wall they have put up around themselves!
Maybe......
What are you waiting for??

This one looks good. I have it from Netgalley and haven't had the chance to read it yet!
Great pick!
Here is my WOW: http://thethoughtsofabookjunky.blogspot.com/2010/10/waiting-on-wednesday-iron-witch.html
This one looks awesome!
You know what? They're offering a galley of this on Netgalley. I received a copy of it, and I'm really excited to read it! I'm bombarded w/ midterms and such right now, but as soon as I can, I want to get into this right away! :)
Here's my WoW.
Yeah. This is definitely different. I haven't heard of any books with goblins before. I'm going to check it out. Thanks.
Hehe I have it from Netgalley too but got hit with a bunch of review requests that were kinda urgent. I can't wait to read it and see what everyone thinks :) I'd definitely go check out Netgalley!
Here's my WOW this week
Ok. I want a tree like that!! Doesn't it just scream "imagine the possibilites"? Thanks for featuring this one! I hadn't heard of it before. My wow is at:
The Delusional Diaries
I've read Tyger Tyger and it's a really good one, I hope you enjoy it. =)
I'm actually waiting on Tyger Tyger too, I signed up for an ARC tour of it, but have heard nothing on it :(
Check my pick out HERE!
Eeek! Goblins! Scary. Finn sounds intriguing though :) Check out my pick here!
I haven't heard a book about goblins in a while. This is going to be good- I'll be waiting for this one too. Thank you for letting me know.
Great choice. Think I'm going to have to copy The Bookish Snob and request it on Netgalley.
This is what I'm waiting on this week.

Have now added Tyger Tyger to my wishing to read list as well, seen it now for awhile on other WOW's but you finally are the one who added the synopsis to help make up my mind! Hope you get to read it and enjoy it soon ST and thanks for stopping by my post earlier today also!

Really excited for this one, too! I love a good fantasy!! :)
oh yes, this one is on my TBR List too! It sounds like so much fun :)
Totally agree! This one's been in my TBR pile for far too long! There definitely aren't many goblin books on the market nowadays - it will be a nice change of pace =) Great pick!
i've heard this is great!
hehehe You have me giggling uncontrollably over your Green Goblin comment. Can't wait to hear what you think of this one. It looks really good. =)
Have never read a book about Goblins, but this one sounds exciting.Hope you'll get it soon:)
I read Tyger Tyger and enjoyed it a lot. It is a fun and original book. Hope you like it too. Can't wait for the sequel!
Ohhh, sounds nice! Get it in HARDCOVER so I can borrow....the library doesn't have it. :-(
I saw this one a while back and was immediately interested. It's sounds awesome! Hope you enjoy it!

Great choice. I'm also dying to read Tyger, Tyger. Have heard nothing but good things about it so far!
Hi,
Thanks for your great comment back at my WoW post! I loved the support!
