Waiting on Wednesday 12: Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake

Anna Dressed in Blood (Anna, #1)


Just your average boy-meets-girl, girl-kills-people story...

Cas Lowood has inherited an unusual vocation: He kills the dead.

So did his father before him, until his gruesome murder by a ghost he sought to kill. Now, armed with his father’s mysterious and deadly athame, Cas travels the country with his kitchen-witch mother and their spirit-sniffing cat. Together they follow legends and local lore, trying to keep up with the murderous dead—keeping pesky things like the future and friends at bay.

When they arrive in a new town in search of a ghost the locals call Anna Dressed in Blood, Cas doesn’t expect anything outside of the ordinary: move, hunt, kill. What he finds instead is a girl entangled in curses and rage, a ghost like he’s never faced before. She still wears the dress she wore on the day of her brutal murder in 1958: once white, but now stained red and dripping blood. Since her death, Anna has killed any and every person who has dared to step into the deserted Victorian she used to call home.

And she, for whatever reason, spares his life.


Why can't I wait?

I know that this book has already been out for quite a long time and that all of the hype surrounding it has died down. But, I still haven't read it, and it has been on my TBR list for a long time for many reasons: the book sounds amazing, the reviews have been positive, the title is mysterious and the cover is GORGEOUS! Need I say more?

What book are you waiting for?
