"Waiting on Wednesday" is a weekly event which had been hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine where we spotlight upcoming releases we are eagerly anticipating. I'm now linking up with "Can't-Wait Wednesday" hosted over at Wishful Endings.
Miryem is the daughter and granddaughter of moneylenders... but her father isn't a very good one. Free to lend and reluctant to collect, he has loaned out most of his wife's dowry and left the family on the edge of poverty--until Miryem steps in. Hardening her heart against her fellow villagers' pleas, she sets out to collect what is owed--and finds herself more than up to the task. When her grandfather loans her a pouch of silver pennies, she brings it back full of gold.
But having the reputation of being able to change silver to gold can be more trouble than it's worth--especially when her fate becomes tangled with the cold creatures that haunt the wood, and whose king has learned of her reputation and wants to exploit it for reasons Miryem cannot understand.
Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik is due to be released July 10th, 2018 by Del Rey.
Why am I waiting on this one? It's a retelling. This time it's of Rumpelstiltskin.It sounds like it has some interesting twists to it.
What book are you waiting on this week? Share it or a link in the comments so we can check it out and maybe add it to our TBR lists. Thanks for coming by and Happy Reading!
Laura I've just seen another blogger with a book which is a Beauty and the Beast retelling, I think this is the first and only book I have seen retelling Rumplestiltskin.

I think this is the first retelling of Rumplestiltskin that I've run across as well. Beauty and the Beast seems to be a much more common inspiration for retellings.
DeleteI always liked the Rumplestiltskin tale so I'm gonna have to get this one for sure!
