Waiting on Wednesday: City of a Thousand Dolls by Miriam Forster


"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine to spotlight an upcoming release that we're excited about. This week I'm waiting on City of a Thousand Dolls by Miriam Forster.

  The girl with no past, and no future, may be the only one who can save their lives.

Nisha was abandoned at the gates of the City of a Thousand Dolls when she was just a child. Now sixteen, she lives on the grounds of the isolated estate, where orphan girls apprentice as musicians, healers, courtesans, and, if the rumors are true, assassins. Nisha makes her way as Matron’s assistant, her closest companions the mysterious cats that trail her shadow. Only when she begins a forbidden flirtation with the city’s handsome young courier does she let herself imagine a life outside the walls. Until one by one, girls around her start to die.

Before she becomes the next victim, Nisha decides to uncover the secrets that surround the girls’ deaths. But by getting involved, Nisha jeopardizes not only her own future in the City of a Thousand Dolls—but her own life.
(Summary from GoodReads)


While I don't love the cover, I love the sound of the plot. Sounds fantastic right? 

City of a Thousand Dolls comes out Feb. 5, 2013.

  7. This sounds really great! I was a little thrown off by the cover as well, it kind of looks like one of those cheesy adult fantasy novels, but I think the synopsis makes up for it!
