Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they're books that have yet to be released. It's based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.
The book that I'm extra excited about this week is Predatory Natures by Amy Goldsmith!
Lara Williams is desperate to get away. When she gets a job working aboard the luxury train The Banebury for her gap year, she this is her chance to reinvent herself, after the incident that wrecked her relationships and her college prospects several months ago.
At first, the train is everything Lara expected—a five-star escape from her past, demanding customers and all. Even after she learns that her ex-friend, Rhys, who she definitely did not have feelings for before their relationship imploded, is one of her new coworkers, she's determined to make things work.
But on the first night of their journey, the trip takes a strange turn when two mysterious carriages, filled with an array of beautiful and rare plants, are attached to the end of the train in the middle of the night. With them come a pair of siblings. Gwen and Gwydion are wealthy, Welsh, and alluring as they are odd--not to mention, incredibly protective of their botanical cargo.
The siblings claim the plants they're transporting are for research, yet Lara can't shake the feeling that there's something...otherworldly about them. Something that calls to her, night after night, whispering in her dreams. Soon, Lara will you can't outrun your troubles. You have to grab them by their roots. And if she can't dig up the secrets of the Banebury, they might just consume her whole...
Horror is a genre I don't read much, but when I do, I tend to pick up the more "vibey" ones like this. Gore doesn't interest me, but creepy siblings with plants? Sign me up 😂 This book is set to release July 8, 2025 😄
