Waiting on Wednesday (7): Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

So I'm not a big scary book kind of girl normally. And you definitely won't catch me watching scary movies. But for some reason this book just sounds too cool to pass up. Besides the fact that I love the cover, the mysterious and creepy story blurb is totally drawing me in and I'm looking forward to getting out of my element and checking out this book. Just wish I didn't have to wait until August!

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

From Goodreads:

You stop fearing the devil when you’re holding his hand…

Nothing much exciting rolls through Violet White’s sleepy, seaside town…until River West comes along. River rents the guesthouse behind Violet’s crumbling estate, and as eerie, grim things start to happen, Violet begins to wonder about the boy living in her backyard. Is River just a crooked-smiling liar with pretty eyes and a mysterious past? Or could he be something more? Violet’s grandmother always warned her about the Devil, but she never said he could be a dark-haired boy who takes naps in the sun, who likes coffee, who kisses you in a cemetery...who makes you want to kiss back. Violet’s already so knee-deep in love, she can’t see straight. And that’s just how River likes it.

Blending faded decadence and the thrilling dread of gothic horror, April Genevieve Tucholke weaves a dreamy, twisting contemporary romance, as gorgeously told as it is terrifying—a debut to watch.
