Thanks to Jill at Breaking the Spine, I present another edition of Waiting on Wednesday…
Not too long ago, I received an email pointing me in the direction of this book called Wait Until Twilight. The email mentioned that there would be an excerpt on the website.
Well, after reading the brief excerpt, I’m waiting…patiently (or not so).
What I need to do, needs to be done before it gets too dark . . .
Sixteen-year-old Samuel confronts his own inner monster when he discovers a set of deformed triplets whose mother believes they were immaculately conceived. Soon, the babies have taken hold of his waking and sleeping thoughts, and, unable to escape them, he decides to save them, but their shut-in mother and violent older brother want nothing to do with him.
Samuel must fight the trouble within him and the trouble he sees around him to determine who he will become in a year that forces him to grow from motherless boy to self-defined man. Set in a small Georgia town, this psychologically complex story of survival and self determination explores the dark, often contradictory worlds of young contemporary life, laying bare the ugly truths and secrets that haunt all of us.
I mean deformed triplets whose mother believes they were immaculately conceived? Does it get more interesting than that?
Wait Until Twilight sounds like it’s going to be a chilling (and twisted) ride and I’m curious to see what unfolds.
You can read an excerpt online: Wait Until Twilight Excerpt [PDF] or it can be pre-ordered from Amazon.

I’m definitely looking forward to it, that’s for certain. I was offered an ARC, so I’m trying to wait patiently. (It’s hard. At least I have TBR mountain to tide me over until it arrives. LOL)
