 Can't-Wait is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings that spotlights exciting upcoming releases that we can't wait to be released! This meme is based off of Jill @ Breaking the Spine's Waiting on Wednesday meme.

This week's upcoming book spotlights are: 

Maeve Fly by C.J. Leede
Publication: June 6th, 2023
Tor Nightfire
Hardcover. 288 pages.
Pre-order: Amazon | Bookshop.org

From Goodreads:
"By day, Maeve Fly works at the happiest place in the world as every child’s favorite ice princess.

By the neon night glow of the Sunset Strip, Maeve haunts the dive bars with a drink in one hand and a book in the other, imitating her misanthropic literary heroes.

But when Gideon Green - her best friend’s brother - moves to town, he awakens something dangerous within her, and the world she knows suddenly shifts beneath her feet.

Untethered, Maeve ditches her discontented act and tries on a new persona. A bolder, bloodier one, inspired by the pages of American Psycho. Step aside Patrick Bateman, it’s Maeve’s turn with the knife.."

I don't know what to expect from this book at all, but it sounds like a wild ride and I am here for it!

Wolfpack by Amelia Brunskill
Publication: June 13th, 2023
Little, Brown Books
Hardcover. 272 pages.
Pre-order: Amazon | Bookshop.org

From Goodreads:
"Nine girls bound together
in beautiful, virtuous Havenwood,
a refuge from an unsafe world.

Then there are eight,
one of them gone —
departed with no warning.
Did this member of their pack
stray willingly,
or did something more sinister occur?

The girls seek answers
not knowing if they should be angry
or frightened
or perhaps,
they should be both"

I'm not sure if this entire book is written in verse or not (does anyone know?), but either way I think this sounds like a really compelling premise and should make for a dark and incredible story. I am so intrigued by this cover, too!
