Waiting on Wednesday
Waiting on Wednesday/Can’t Wait Wednesday is a weekly feature, started by Breaking the Spine and continued by Wishful Endings, that puts the spotlight on upcoming releases!
This week’s pick is:
Summer of Salt
RELEASING JUNE 5TH, 2018
Practical Magic meets Nova Ren Suma’s Imaginary Girls and Laura Ruby’s Bone Gap in this lush, atmospheric new novel by acclaimed author Katrina Leno.
A magic passed down through generations. An island where strange things happen. A summer that will become legend.
Georgina Fernweh waits impatiently for the tingle of magic in her fingers—magic that has touched every woman in her family. But with her eighteenth birthday looming, Georgina fears her gift will never come.
Over the course of her last summer on the island—a summer of storms, falling in love, and the mystery behind one rare three-hundred-year-old bird—Georgina will learn the truth about magic, in all its many forms.
In Summer of Salt, Katrina Leno weaves another gorgeously original novel of magical realism and coming-of-age. Fans of April Genevieve Tucholke and Anna-Marie McLemore will be swept away.
This novel sounds so unique! I love the promise of magical realism and the summer vibes that Summer of Salt gives off. Plus, look at that gorgeous cover! This book looks like it is going to be such a memorable and mysterious, summer read!

I love stories about inherited magic, and having to master it, especially in the context of coming-of-age. Sounds like a good one!

The cover is beautiful! I’ve been getting bored of a lot of coming of age type novels recently, but I think this will be something special.
