Every week several of my favorite bloggers post vlogs or whatever of all the great book hauls they've received for the week. Since I'm a tiny little fish in the huge book blogging pond, my mailbox isn't stuffed with all the great ARCs that they get. Dana's ARC Envy is my way of highlighting an ARC that I *wish* had been sent to me too.
Title: Blood of My Blood (Jasper Dent #3)
Author:Barry Lyga (website)
Publisher: Little, Brown (website)(Twitter)
Expected Publication Date: September 23, 2014
Judging a book by its cover: Oh my creepiness!
Know anything about the author? Yes, have read 2 of his.
Why do I want it? Have listened to / read the other two in the series. Though I wasn't as wowed by the 2nd one as the 1st, I can't wait to read the last one and learn what happens.
Summary from Goodreads:
Jazz Dent has been shot and left to die in New York City. His girlfriend Connie is in the clutches of Jazz's serial killer father, Billy. And his best friend Howie is bleeding to death on the floor of Jazz's own home in tiny Lobo's Nod. Somehow, these three must rise above the horrors their lives have become and find a way to come together in pursuit of Billy. But then Jazz crosses a line he's never crossed before, and soon the entire country is wondering: "Like father, like son?" Who is the true monster?
The chase is on, and this time Jazz is the hunted, not the hunter. And beyond Billy there lurks something much, much worse. Prepare to meet...the Crow King.
What ARC are you envying this week?
I really need to read the first two books in this trilogy! I've heard such great things, and it really seems right up my alley; like a YA Dexter. Granted, I also haven't seen Dexter, but...that also seems right up my alley. I just have a lot of catching up to do, on a lot of things.
