Waiting on Wednesday #82: Beheld



Waiting on Wednesday is a wonderful meme created by Jill from Breaking the Spine where we highlighted an upcoming release that we're eagerly anticipating.


Beheld by Alex Flinn
Published by HarperTeen
ebook, 368 pages 
Expected publication: January 10th 2017
Goodreads AmazonB & N TBD

Being a powerful witch, Kendra has survived it all. Since she first beheld James over three hundred years ago, Kendra has tangled with witch hunters and wolves, helped a miller’s daughter spin straw into gold, cowered in London as German bombs fell, and lived through who knows how many shipwrecks. But her powers have limits, and immortality can be lonely. Kendra isn’t ready to stop searching for the warlock she had met centuries ago. 
With the help of her magic mirror, Kendra will travel the world to reconnect with her lost love—and, of course, she can’t help but play a hand in a few more stories along the way. 
Featuring retellings of favorite fairy tales such as Little Red Riding Hood, Rumpelstiltskin, East of the Sun and West of the Moon, and The Ugly Duckling, Alex Flinn’s latest young adult novel, Beheld, is fresh fairy-tale fun from beginning to end.




Alex Flinn is back people! Kendra is certainly my favourite character created by the author and I can't wait to sink my teeth into another fairy tale with her as the star. Mirrored, the last fare from Alex Flinn is a bit dark in my opinion. So I'm wishing that this will be able to capture the humour in Bewitching where Kendra is first introduced.
