This weeks Waiting on Thursday, is on a Wednesday! Huge shocker, but tomorrow is a blog tour for a book I absolutely loved and I can't wait for you all to see it. In the mean time, I'm not sure if I'm going to continue on with this in March. I enjoy them, but I also feel kind of repetive with doing them. For now though, lets get back to this books that's coming out in March.
Synopsis
There’s no place for a
girl in Mary’s world. Not in the home of her mother, desperately drunk
and poor. Not in the household of her wealthy granny, where a girl could
never be named an heir. And certainly not in the arms of Nat, her
childhood love who never knew her for who she was. As a hired sailor
aboard a Caribbean merchant ship, Mary’s profession—and her
safety—depend on her ability to disguise the fact that she’s a girl.
Leastways, that’s what she thinks is true. But then pirates attack the ship, and right in the middle of the swashbuckling crowd of bloodthirsty pirates, Mary spots something she never could have imagined: a girl pirate. The sight of a girl standing unafraid upon the deck, gun and sword in hand, changes everything. In a split-second decision, Mary turns her gun on her own captain and earns herself a spot among the pirates’ crew.
For the first time, Mary has a shot at freedom. But imagining living life as her true self is easier, it seems, than actually doing it. And when Mary finds herself falling for the captain’s mistress, she risks everything—her childhood love, her place among the crew, and even her life.

Why I'm Waiting
A YA Historical Fiction novel that deals with a teenage girl who pretends to be a boy so she can become a pirate. Yes you read that right, a pirate story!
