Waiting on Wednesday (16): A MADNESS SO DISCREET

WoW is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine!


Title: A Madness So Discreet
Author: Mindy McGinnis
Release date: October 6, 2015

Summary: Grace Mae knows madness. She keeps it locked away, along with her voice, trapped deep inside a brilliant mind that cannot forget horrific family secrets. Those secrets, along with the bulge in her belly, land her in a Boston insane asylum. 

When her voice returns in a burst of violence, Grace is banished to the dark cellars where her mind is discovered by a visiting doctor who dabbles in the new study of criminal psychology. With her keen eyes and sharp memory, Grace will make the perfect assistant at crime scenes. Escaping from Boston to the safety of an ethical Ohio asylum, Grace finds friendship and hope, hints of a life she should have had. But gruesome nights bring Grace and the doctor into the circle of a killer who stalks young women. Grace, continuing to operate under the cloak of madness, must hunt a murderer while she confronts the demons in her own past. 

Thoughts: THAT COVER. God, it is beautiful and eerie and just SO COOL. It makes me so intrigued. I own Not a Drop to Drink, another Mindy McGinnis book, but I haven't read it yet. But then I saw this cover of her next book and was so drawn in and curious. It sounds intriguing, too. Madness? Crime solving? And that last line of the first paragraph, "the bulge in her belly?" I am SO CURIOUS. I seriously can't wait to read this. 

Tell me: what are YOU waiting on this Wednesday? Does my pick sound intriguing to you, too?  Let me know in the comments below!

    1. Right? There are so many things to look at on the cover, and there's just something...wrong about it. Off. In a deliciously creepy way. Thanks!
