Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event originally created and hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we are all eagerly anticipating. Jill has been MIA since August of 2016. Despite this, the meme lives on….Hope you come back Jill! Until then I will be joining Tressa at Wishful Endings and her meme Can’t-Wait Wednesday.
Happy Wednesday y’all! This week I’m anxiously waiting on Batman: Nightwalker by Marie Lu, the second book in DC Icons series. I haven’t had a chance yet to read Wonder Woman but I’ve heard great things about it. Batman is one of my favorite superheroes, coming in second to Superman. And I love Marie Lu so this is a must read and one I’m highly anticipating in 2018!

Before he was Batman, he was Bruce Wayne. A reckless boy willing to break the rules for a girl who may be his worst enemy.
The Nightwalkers are terrorizing Gotham City, and Bruce Wayne is next on their list.
One by one, the city's elites are being executed as their mansions' security systems turn against them, trapping them like prey. Meanwhile, Bruce is turning eighteen and about to inherit his family's fortune, not to mention the keys to Wayne Enterprises and all the tech gadgetry his heart could ever desire. But after a run-in with the police, he's forced to do community service at Arkham Asylum, the infamous prison that holds the city's most brutal criminals.
Madeleine Wallace is a brilliant killer . . . and Bruce's only hope.
In Arkham, Bruce meets Madeleine, a brilliant girl with ties to the Nightwalkers. What is she hiding? And why will she speak only to Bruce? Madeleine is the mystery Bruce must unravel. But is he getting her to divulge her secrets, or is he feeding her the information she needs to bring Gotham City to its knees? Bruce will walk the dark line between trust and betrayal as the Nightwalkers circle closer.

Marie graduated from the University of Southern California in '06 and currently lives in LA, where she spends her time stuck on the freeways.
What are you not-so-patiently waiting on this Wednesday?
I really want to read thin one. So jealous of everyone who has been receiving an ARCs – lucky readers! =P I hope we both enjoy “Batman: Nightwalker” when it finally comes out.
Happy readings! 😉

I love all these graphic novel and superhero retellings they’re doing as actual novels. Will have to read this one as well! Great pick!
Check out my Wednesday post
Yaaasss!! I cannot wait to read this one! I love Batman though I’ve never read the comics! Came to the point where I might have there were just too many and I wasn’t sure where to even try to begin! LOL! Though I have loved all the movies! Especially the Michael Keaton ones! Which makes me equally excited for Sarah J. Maas’ Catwoman book!!
Here’s my WoW
Have a GREAT day!
