Waiting On Wednesday (27) : Dr Frakenstein's Daughters by Suzanne Weyn



Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine to show the  upcoming titles that we're mostly eager for.


Dr Frakenstein's Daughter by Suzanne Weyn
Publication Date : January 2013
Publisher : Scholastic Press
Summary (from Goodreads)

A new generation is creating a monster....

Doctor Victor Frankenstein's previously unacknowledged beautiful, intelligent twin daughters (from an early marriage when he was a student) have come to Frankenstein's Castle to claim it as their inheritance.

Shortly thereafter they learn that a serial killer is on the loose. They try to ignore this -- Gretchen takes up her father's work, while Ingrid throws lavish parties. Gretchen and Ingrid form a love triangle with a young naval officer with a debilitating disease. Though he loves Ingrid, he agrees to work with Gretchen on a series of body transplants that improve his condition. Before long he is even walking without his cane. He does not know that the science that is helping him is the science of death itself . . .

A twisted, macabre journey of romance and horror.


Come on, who wouldn't want to read a book about Frankenstein's twin daughters ? I know I want to ! Although I'm not a huge fan of the cover, I do like the sound of the book, but the love triangle does make me a little hesitant. I hope I won't mind it too much when I finally do get to read the book!
That last line of the summary is what really caught my attention ! :D


What do you guys think ? What are you waiting for today ? Don't forget to leave your links below ! :)

Except there’s something off with Kale. He wears her shoes in the shower, is overly fascinated with things like DVDs and vases, and acts like she’ll turn to dust if he touches her. It’s not until Dez’s father shows up, wielding a gun and knowing more about Kale than he should, that Dez realizes there’s more to this boy—and her father’s “law firm”—than she realized. Kale has been a prisoner of Denazen Corporation—an organization devoted to collecting “special” kids known as Sixes and using them as weapons—his entire life. And, oh yeah, his touch? It kills. The two team up with a group of rogue Sixes hellbent on taking dow
