Bone Criers have a
sacred duty. They alone can keep the dead from preying on the living.
But their power to ferry the spirits of the dead into goddess Elara’s
Night Heavens or Tyrus’s Underworld comes from sacrifice. The gods
demand a promise of dedication. And that promise comes at the cost of
the Bone Criers’ one true love.
Ailesse has been prepared since birth to become the matriarch of the Bone Criers, a mysterious famille of women who use strengths drawn from animal bones to ferry dead souls. But first she must complete her rite of passage and kill the boy she’s also destined to love.
Bastien’s father was slain by a Bone Crier and he’s been seeking revenge ever since. Yet when he finally captures one, his vengeance will have to wait. Ailesse’s ritual has begun and now their fates are entwined—in life and in death.
Sabine has never had the stomach for the Bone Criers’ work. But when her best friend Ailesse is taken captive, Sabine will do whatever it takes to save her, even if it means defying their traditions—and their matriarch—to break the bond between Ailesse and Bastien. Before they all die.

Thoughts:
Alright, first, lets talk cover. This cover is absolutely STUNNING. So beautiful and pretty; it's the first thing that caught my attention. Then the description cements the fact that I must have this book when it comes out. I think it sounds like something different and I can't wait to read it!
What are you waiting on this week?
