This week’s WoW is:
A Madness So Discreet by Mindy McGinnis
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.
In this beautifully twisted historical thriller, Mindy McGinnis, acclaimed author of Not a Drop to Drink and In a Handful of Dust, explores the fine line between sanity and insanity, good and evil—and the madness that exists in all of us.

THAT. COVER. Holy shizzlesticks. Obviously, I will stop at nothing to read this book. I really loved Not a Drop to Drink–Mindy McGinnis’s writing is fantastic–so this one should be as good. And it’s also set in Boston (for some part of it at least)! Woot woot. So much to look forward to with this one. Can’t wait!
What are you waiting on?
THE COVER 0_o omg !! I will read the book for that alone.
