Waiting on Wednesday : When Rose Wakes

"Waiting on Wednesday" is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. It lets us all gush about what soon-to-be released books we are jumping-up-and-down excited for.


When Rose Wakes
by Christopher Golden

release date: September 28, 2010

Description from Goodreads:An enchanting tale by Christoper Golden about a teenager who wakes from a coma and slowly comes to realize that she is Sleeping Beauty of fairy tales.

And a little bit about it from the authors blog:...present day New York, Rose wakes from a coma with no memory, and only her two aunts to care for her. But how long has she REALLY been asleep, and what secret past are her aunts hiding from her? :)

Ok, so not much as been released about it, but what little has (and that gorgeous cover!!) has got me SOLD on this one!

  8. This sounds great. Sleeping Beauty (along with the 12 Dancing Princesses) was one of my favorite fairy tales, it will be interesting to see exactly how the author chose to retell the story.
