My Friday Find #4: Born Wicked by Jessica Spotswood

It's been a while since I've share a book that I have found
and neeeed to read as soon as I can get my hands on it :) 

Here is my latest find, it's a newbie! It was just released on February 7th! 


The first of The Cahill Witch Chronicles - 

"Blessed with a gift..."cursed" with a secret." 

Everybody knows Cate Cahill and her sisters are eccentric. Too pretty, too reclusive, and far too educated for their own good. But the truth is even worse: they're witches. And if their secret is discovered by the priests of the Brotherhood, it would mean an asylum, a prison ship - or an early grave. 
Before her mother died, Cate promised to protect her sisters. But with only six months left to choose between marriage and the Sisterhood, she might not be able to keep her word . . . especially after she finds her mother's diary, uncovering a secret that could spell her family's destruction. Desperate to find alternatives to their fate, Cate starts scouring banned books and questioning rebellious new friends, all while juggling tea parties, shocking marriage proposals, and a forbidden romance with the completely unsuitable Finn Belastra. 
If what her mother wrote is true, the Cahill girls aren't safe. Not from the Brotherhood, the Sisterhood - not even from each other.



Witches!!!
I've been wanting to read more books about/with witches! and I think that this one is going to raise the bar for any other books that I read after this one...
Brotherhood? Priests? Hellooo? Gotta love some robed bad guys, right ;)
I already love the feel of the time period that the story is taking place in...
and who doesn't love a bit of romance too!

Oh! and how can I forget to point out that cover!?
Isn't is gorgeous?!
The pic, the coloring, the font - outstanding!!!
It's going to look so very pretty on my shelf ;)

I actually went to my local bookstore looking for this, and they were sold out already!
So I had to get Everneath by Brodi Ashton instead ;) hee hee!
I guess I will have to wait a bit longer for it!

For now, I will just have to settle reading the first two chapters found HERE!!!
Such a tease :)
