"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
Publication Date: February 14, 2014
I had to pick this one because it sounds so strange but interesting. I think this is one of those books that is either going to be great or its going to suck. Lucky for us, the early reviews seem promising. It's a ... are you ready for this... caveman romance. Seriously!
Synopsis from Goodreads:
It’s said that women and men are from two different planets when it comes to communication, but how can they overcome the obstacles of prehistoric times when one of them simply doesn’t have the ability to comprehend language?
Ehd’s a caveman living on his own in a harsh wilderness. He’s strong and intelligent, but completely alone. When he finds a beautiful young woman in his pit trap, it’s obvious to him that she is meant to be his mate. He doesn’t know where she came from; she’s wearing some pretty odd clothing, and she makes a lot of noises with her mouth that give him a headache. Still, he’s determined to fulfill his purpose in life – provide for her, protect her, and put a baby in her.
Elizabeth doesn’t know where she is or exactly how she got there. She’s confused and distressed by her predicament, and there’s a caveman hauling her back to his cavehome. She’s not at all interested in Ehd’s primitive advances, and she just can’t seem to get him to listen. No matter what she tries, getting her point across to this primitive, but beautiful, man is a constant – and often hilarious – struggle.
With only each other for company, they must rely on one another to fight the dangers of the wild and prepare for the winter months. As they struggle to coexist, theirs becomes a love story that transcends language and time.

This doesn't seem like something that would catch my attention but after reading that blurb I'm totally intrigued! Thanks for bringing this to my attention! I curious to know how they will end up communicating!

Hi Ifrah! I've been seeing this book floating around and I feel the same way that you do! It is either going to be really good or totally suck. I always give authors credit for coming up with something different, because let's face it, sometimes we all get tired of reading the same thing over and over. I just hope it is executed well. Feel free to stop by my blog and leave me a link once you have posted a review. Definitely curious to see what you think!
ReplyDeleteI am now following your blog. Come on by and say hello sometime!

The wait isn't long guys! I guess we'll find out soon enough.
