Waiting on Wednesday - Magic in Manhattan bind-ups

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

This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:

  

Magic in Manhattan Volume One

by Sarah Mlynowski

Published by Ember

Publication Date May 8, 2012

What if all your wishes could come true?

In Bras & Broomsticks, fourteen-year-old Rachel learns the outrageously unfair fact that yes, magic exists, but she's not the one who's a witch: Miri, her younger sister, is!

The magic continues in Frogs & French Kisses when the teeny-tiny love spell Rachel talks Miri into casting goes horribly wrong. Now the fate of their family, the world, and senior prom is in Rachel's hands. . . .

Magic in Manhattan Volume Two: Spells & Sleeping Bags/Parties & Potions

by Sarah Mlynowski

Published by Ember

Publication Date May 8, 2012

Witches have a lot of secrets. . . .

In Spells & Sleeping Bags, Rachel's psyched for the summer. Sure, her new powers are out of control, but her dream boyfriend, Raf, is with her. Too bad a backstabber in her cabin is making her life miserable.

The supernatural scene is heating up in Parties & Potions as Rachel and Miri get ready for their Samsorta, a debutante party for witches. But Rachel can't juggle a secret life (and two boys) for long. . . .

These books sound like too much fun. I was excited to hear from Sarah herself (at the Ten Things launch) that her previously published books would be released as bind-ups. I love bind-ups and the covers are cute.
