Can't Wait Wednesday/Waiting on Wednesday #243: A Map of Days by Ransom Riggs
"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.
Synopsis from Penguin Teen:
Having saved the peculiar world, Jacob Portman is back in Florida. Except now Miss Peregrine, Emma, and their peculiar friends are with him and doing their best to blend in. But carefree days of beach visits and normalling lessons are soon interrupted by a discovery—a subterranean bunker that belonged to Jacob’s grandfather, Abe. Clues to Abe’s double-life as a peculiar operative start to emerge, secrets long hidden in plain sight. And Jacob begins to learn about the dangerous legacy he has inherited—truths that were part of him long before he walked into Miss Peregrine’s time loop. Now, Jacob and his friends are thrust into the untamed landscape of American peculiardom that none of them understand. New wonders and dangers await in this brilliant next chapter for Miss Peregrine’s peculiar children. Their story is again illustrated throughout by haunting vintage photographs, but with a striking addition for this multi-era American adventure—full color!
A Map of Days by Ransom Riggs is expected to be released October 2nd, 2018 from Penguin.
Why am I waiting on this one? I enjoyed the other books in the series. I'd like to see what happens to the characters now that the immediate threat seems to be passed. This will be the fourth book in the series. A sample of the book may be read here.
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!

"Look casual," I said. "Like you belong here."
This seemed to strike Emma as funny, and she stifled a laugh. It was funny I guess, inasmuch as we belonged nowhere in particular, least of all here.
pp.29-30
