Can't Wait Wednesday #24 - Cold the Night, Fast the Wolves by Meg Long

Happy Wednesday! I'm back for the second week in a row with a new Can't Wait Wednesday. Today, I have a new book that I wanted to share that's actually going to be released next month called, Cold the Night, Fast the Wolves by Meg Long. I was so surprised that I had not heard of this book until recently. If you're not familiar with Can’t Wait Wednesday, this is a bookish meme that spotlights upcoming book releases that we're excited for.

About the Book:

Summary:

After angering a local gangster, seventeen-year-old Sena Korhosen must flee with her prize fighting wolf, Iska, in tow. A team of scientists offer to pay her way off her frozen planet on one condition: she gets them to the finish line of the planet’s infamous sled race. Though Sena always swore she’d never race after it claimed both her mothers’ lives, it’s now her only option.

But the tundra is a treacherous place, and as the race unfolds and their lives are threatened at every turn, Sena starts to question her own abilities. She must discover whether she's strong enough to survive the wild – whether she and Iska together are strong enough to get them all out alive.

My Thoughts on Cold the Night, Fast the Wolves:

On about November 30th, I came across this book from the latest Wednesday Books newsletter that was sent out. My initial thought was how has no one I follow been talking about this book? And why am I only now seeing it when it's release date is next month!  Thankfully, that has been corrected and I get to read it really soon, hopefully!

The cover alone is absolutely gorgeous! I immediately added this book to my new Goodreads page when I went to read the synopsis, this sound like such a fantastic story.  In the newsletter, it was also accompanied with the first Chapter that I got a chance to read too. I cannot wait to read the rest of the book!
