It’s Wednesday and you know what that means. It’s time for Waiting on Wednesday, an event in which a bunch of us bookish weirdos post about an upcoming release we’re anxiously anticipating. Thanks to Breaking the Spine for hosting!
This week’s pick is Shades of Doon by Carey Corp & Lorie Langdon!
Pre-order Shades of Doon from Amazon
Shades of Doon is the third installment in the Doon series. If you’ve followed me for any length of time, you know this is one of my all time favorite series. So many feels!

But on to Shades of Doon…
After cheating death, Veronica Welling is determined to savor every moment in her idyllic kingdom with both her true love and best friend by her side at last. At the same time, Mackenna Reid is enthusiastically building her new life and a theater with her prince. But just as their dreams of happiness are within reach, the world Vee and Kenna have chosen is ripped away, leaving them to face their most horrific challenge yet—their old lives.
Thrust out of Doon, the best friends are confronted with tormentors from their past and no way to return to their adopted land. When the MacCrae brothers rush to their rescue, the girls’ situation turns from nightmare to modern-day fairy tale. But their happiness could be short lived: unbeknownst to them, someone in their closest circle is aiding the witch of Doon in her bid to destroy the kingdom once and for all.
My Thoughts…
Ack! I am just DYING to read this. I’m already itching to know who is going to betray my favorite fictional besties. Is it one of the Rosettis? Fiona? Fergus? For the love of plaid, don’t let it be one of the MacCrae brothers (especially not Jamie)! You wouldn’t do that to me, would you Carey and Lorie? You wouldn’t turn my book boyfriend into a villain!
Okay, enough with the ranting. As you can see, this series is a must read. And guess what, you’ve got time. Shades of Doon (releasing from Blink) doesn’t come out until September 1, 2015. That’s right, you have almost 6 months to get on top of reading the first two books. And since I know you’ll love them, why not pre-order your copy of Shades of Doon from Amazon?
Are you just as excited as I am to read Shades of Doon? What’s your “waiting on” pick this week? Leave a comment below or tweet to me @SaraEllaWrites. I love hearing from you! Until then, happy reading!
Thanks so much for the glowing recommendation and the Shades of Doon shout out…but I must correct you on one point–this is the third book in the series, but not the final installment. There will be four Doon books in all. 😀
How did I not know this?! Thanks for the correction, Lorie! I’ll fix it right away 🙂
Hey, no worries at all! Just thought you’d be happy to find out there were two more books full of Jamie. ;D
I do! I do!
I’ve never heard of this series but it sounds really awesome! I’m definitely adding it to my TBR! Thanks for sharing 🙂 Check out my WoW:
