Title: The Chaos of Stars by Kiersten White
Published by: HarperTeen
Release date: September 10th, 2013
Isadora’s family is seriously screwed up.
Of course, as the human daughter of Egyptian gods, that pretty much comes with the territory. She’s also stuck with parents who barely notice her, and a house full of relatives who can’t be bothered to remember her name. After all, they are going to be around forever—and she’s a mere mortal.
Isadora’s sick of living a life where she’s only worthy of a passing glance, and when she has the chance to move to San Diego with her brother, she jumps on it. But Isadora’s quickly finding that a “normal” life comes with plenty of its own epic complications—and that there’s no such thing as a clean break when it comes to family. Much as she wants to leave her past behind, she can’t shake the ominous dreams that foretell destruction for her entire family. When it turns out there may be truth in her nightmares, Isadora has to decide whether she can abandon her divine heritage after all.
Why I want to read it: I really enjoyed Paranolmancy by the same author. Also, it seems like this involves Egyptian mythology which is a bit unusual. Finally, this cover is so pretty!
What are you waiting for this week?
Great pick. I liked Paranormalcy, and hope this is just as good.
ReplyDeleteI hope is as good as it looks :)
DeleteThis is such a good pick. I have yet to read something of hers that I dislike.. Actually, I've only read Paranormalcy and Supernaturally but they were great and her future releases sound great too :)

This cover is so stunning. I'm in lust with it. And there are so many books about mythology, but none I can recall about Egyptian myths. Plus it's Kiersten White so that means it'll be golden.
