Summary from Goodreads (here):
Welcome to Blythewood. At seventeen, Avaline Hall has already buried her mother, survived a horrific factory fire, and escaped from an insane asylum. Now she’s on her way to Blythewood Academy, the elite boarding school in New York’s mist-shrouded Hudson Valley that her mother attended—and was expelled from. Though she’s afraid her high society classmates won’t accept a factory girl in their midst, Ava is desperate to unravel her family’s murky past, discover the identity of the father she’s never known, and perhaps finally understand her mother’s abrupt suicide. She’s also on the hunt for the identity of the mysterious boy who rescued her from the fire. And she suspects the answers she seeks lie at Blythewood. But nothing could have prepared her for the dark secret of what Blythewood is, and what its students are being trained to do. Haunted by dreams of a winged boy and pursued by visions of a sinister man who breathes smoke, Ava isn’t sure if she’s losing her mind or getting closer to the truth. And the more rigorously Ava digs into the past, the more dangerous her present becomes. Vivid and atmospheric, full of mystery and magic, this romantic page-turner by bestselling author Carol Goodman tells the story of a world on the brink of change and the girl who is the catalyst for it all.

Yeah not many readers have, i just found it randomly from penguin a few days ago too :) Thanks for stopping by Shane. HUGS!!
DeleteGreat pick! I can't believe it's almost 500 pages though. That's one fat book :) But I suppose Mara Dyer (an equally insane series, in a good way) is that long but it reads super fast. I'll have to keep my eye on this one.
ReplyDeleteYeah it does seem long :/ but then again it means more story for me to read :D Haha, Mara Dyer did seem like a fast read to me too! Thanks for stopping by as always Becca!! Much <333
DeleteThis is new one for me! And i think it sounds pretty good but it also sounds busy so I hope it is executed well!! Great pick! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletemy WoW @ The Quiet Concert
Yeah, i'm hoping that it's done well too because it would REALLY disappoint me if i ended up hating it :( But then again it could be awesome and the the busy-ness could work :) So i'm keeping my hopes up!! Thanks for stopping by Nicole, much bloggy <333!
DeleteBlythewood sounds so good! Hoping to score an arc from Penguin.

DeleteHaha I love the gifs you used XD But you're right, I wanted this one as soon as I read 'asylum'. Quite a load this girl has had to deal with o.O I'm totally intrigued with the mystery aspect. And I'm a sucker for boarding schools ;) Thanks so much for bringing this one to my attention!
