Waiting On: Ashes to Ashes by Melissa C. Walker



Ashes to Ashes by Melissa C. Walker
To be published: December 23, 2013 by Katherine Tegen Books
Ashes to Ashes
The book is the first in a two-book series, and it's about a girl named Callie, whose life is cut short by a tragic accident.

When she dies, instead of the nothingness she expects, she finds an ethereal plane called the Prism, in which you are taught to haunt your loved ones, to help them move on from your death.

It's both painful and beautiful, and Callie struggles to find peace there. But there is also danger in this beyond: Ghosts who will do anything, and hurt anyone, in order to live again. [goodreads]


Melissa Walker is an author I adore!  Unbreak My Heart was one of my favorite reads from last year, so of course I am excited to see something new from her.  This particular novel sounds incredibly interesting.. ghosts? after life? I sense some creepiness here, but in the best way possible.


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

  2. Ooh, this one does sound good. And just two books? I'm starting to see more and more of these (so no middle book syndrome). Great pick! ~Pam

  3. Given how much I disliked the last Melissa C. Walker novel I read (Unbreak My Heart) I'm reluctant to read another. That said, the premise is certainly unique and sounds like something I might enjoy. I think I'll hold off and wait to read a couple of reviews before deciding whether or not to add this book to my ever-growing TBR list.

  6. This sounds really good! I like that it's a 2 book series (I'm sooo tired of trilogies!). I'll have to add this to my tbr. Thanks for sharing.

  7. Whoa, this sounds super crazy but really good! Goodreads says "If I Stay meets Ghost" so I'm way intrigued.

  8. I haven't read Unbreak My Heart, but I have heard great things (is there a way to not sing that title?). I'm curious about the plane and this sounds sad and eerie at the same time. Great pick!
