Weekly Ya Releases: June 17 2014


 As you guys can see this week there are two MAJOR releases, Ruin & Rising by Leigh Bardugo and Graduation Day by Joelle Charbonneau.

Other than that there are a couple of other books being released although not as popular such as Dark Metropolis and Otherbound.

Now the nation's fate rests with a broken Sun Summoner, a disgraced tracker, and the shattered remnants of a once-great magical army.

Alina will have to forge new alliances and put aside old rivalries as she and Mal race to find the last of Morozova's amplifiers. But as she begins to unravel the Darkling's secrets, she reveals a past that will forever alter her understanding of the bond they share and the power she wields.
