From Goodreads:
My name is Gwen Frost, and I go to Mythos Academy — a school of myths, magic and warrior whiz kids, where even the lowliest geek knows how to chop off somebody’s head with a sword and Logan Quinn, the hottest Spartan guy in school, also happens to be the deadliest.
But lately, things have been weird, even for Mythos. First, mean girl Jasmine Ashton was murdered in the Library of Antiquities. Then, someone stole the Bowl of Tears, a magical artifact that can be used to bring about the second Chaos War. You know, death, destruction and lots of other bad, bad things. Freaky stuff like this goes on all the time at Mythos, but I’m determined to find out who killed Jasmine and why – especially since I should have been the one who died...

From Goodreads:
(UNOFFICAL description, subject to alteration)
A modern retelling of the German legend "Tristan and Isolde", "Tris and Izzy", is about a young witch named Izzie who is dating Mark King, the captain of the basketball team and thinks her life is going swimmingly well. Until-- she makes a love potion for her best friend Brangane and then ends up taking it herself accidentally, and falling in love with Tristan, the new guy at school.
I've always loved Tristan and Isolde more than Romeo and Juliet... so I'm really curious about this retelling.

Enthralled has a couple of my favourite authors featured so I definitely want to try it!Touchg of Frost sounds good as well...but I really should try her Gin series as well! Good choices this week - as always! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI think Enthralled looks really good! And, I've decided that the chick on your header is going to be one of my next tattoo's! Minus the dog, but I'm in love with her.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more with your choices Melissa! I am totally on a boarding school/ academy kick right now where students go to hone their magical abilities so "Touch of Frost" is right up my alley!
