Title: Born Wicked (The Cahill Witch Chronicles #1)
Author: Jessica Spotswood
Publisher: G.P Putnam's Sons Books for Young Readers
Expected Release Date: February 7th 2012
Everybody knows Cate Cahill and her sisters are eccentric. Too pretty, too reclusive, and far too educated for their own good. But the truth is even worse: they're witches. And if their secret is discovered by the priests of the Brotherhood, it would mean an asylum, a prison ship—or an early grave.
Before her mother died, Cate promised to protect her sisters. But with only six months left to choose between marriage and the Sisterhood, she might not be able to keep her word . . . especially after she finds her mother's diary, uncovering a secret that could spell her family's destruction. Desperate to find alternatives to their fate, Cate starts scouring banned books and questioning rebellious new friends, all while juggling tea parties, shocking marriage proposals, and a forbidden romance with the completely unsuitable Finn Belastra.
If what her mother wrote is true, the Cahill girls aren't safe. Not from the Brotherhood, the Sisterhood—not even from each other.
*SQUEAL* Gorgeous cover, yes? Not only that, but the blurb sounds really interesting as well! I haven't read many books on witches (unless you count Harry Potter) and the other's I've read weren't that great, so I'm really excited to read this one! I'm so curious to find out what this very destructive secret is! Can't wait for this book to be released!
Yes! The cover is absolutely gorgeous and I LOVE me some witches! Any book or show or.. anything really, that involves witches and I'm instantly hooked. This has potential to be fantastic. And yay cause AU recently got rights to publish it!!

Gasp! I can't believe I haven't heard of this one yet. Witches are my all time favorite paranormal, for sure. And I agree that the cover is gorgeous.
