text: In the Pacific Northwest of 1928, Julian Powell lives a life that for most appears to be one of privilege—a perfect life in a huge house, servants, and carefully groomed grounds. No matter how idyllic it might seem, it has become a prison for Julian. His days are filled with the endless monotony of family gatherings, gossip, and brown suits. Overshadowing him is a life-long illness. Julian finds his only freedom from his overbearing family in secretly writing books celebrating the beauty of nature. Occasionally he escapes to the local bookstore, with the hope of seeing the town’s eccentric, William Neill. Julian’s life changes forever when he makes the boldest decision of his life. He leaves to take care of an ailing childhood friend, moving to a place that will take him away from all he has
  ever known to an unexpected new life. He becomes part of a family of his own choosing, and it brings him closer to the man that he’s been secretly falling for—a man who has a prison of his own to escape.
  As William and Julian struggle to overcome their pasts, will their secrets bring them together or drive them apart?
  Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly blog post hosted by Breaking The Spine where readers showcase which books they are highly anticipating. This week I'm turning my spotlight on Ink and Bone by Rachel Caine.
  Who cares that this book doesn't release until July, it sounds amazing!! I also love how unique the story sounds. I don't think I've ever read a story with the main focus being the library of Alexandria. As a lover of books, the library of Alexandria has always held a certain fascination for me so on that level alone I can't wait to read this one. Definitely cool, can't wait, can it be July already please?!
  This does sound interesting and you're right, I've never heard of any books that had the Great Library in it. Hopefully you can get your hands on it a little early.
  I. NEED. THIS. NOW! Rachel has been so excited about this series and so am I. I love her and her Morganville series so much. Excellent pick!
  This book has such a beautiful cover! It sounds amazing too. I haven't read anything by Rachel yet (My co-blogger is always pushing me to) so I am excited to get my hands on this one! :)
  I am so excited about this book! The Morganville series was one of my first vampire series, and it's still one of my favorites. Plus, this cover is absolutely amazing, and I can't wait to read about the Library of Alexandria. Great pick!
