Can't Wait Wednesday #53

This weekly meme is hosted by the Wishful Endings blog. The meme spotlights the books that we are excited about but have yet to read. Generally, they're books that have yet to be released.

Nancy Bilyeau is one of my favorite authors. She is coming out with a new book on September 1, 2026. The Heiress of Northanger Abbey is a Jane Austen sequel concerning Catherine Morland. Twenty-two years after her marriage to Henry Tilney, the imposing estate of Northanger Abbey will pass to a new generation. Catherine's daughter Phoebe is expected to inherit the grand estate. However, she inherits more than just the estate. Phoebe uncovers long-buried secrets, hidden corridors, and haunting secrets. 

Here is the publisher's blurb. 

Gloucestershire, 1820: Catherine Tilney receives a letter that resurrects her darkest fears. Her daughter Phoebe has fallen under the influence of the unscrupulous Thorpe family-the very figures who once nearly destroyed Catherine's happiness.

Determined to protect her child from dangerous fortune hunters, Catherine follows Phoebe to an isolated manor on Dartmoor. There, she finds a landscape of reckless passions, family secrets, and a dangerously charming aristocratic neighbor. It all feels eerily like the plot of the latest Gothic sensation, The Vampyre - but is Catherine once again letting her imagination run wild?

In this psychologically charged sequel to Jane Austen's classic, award-winning historical novelist Nancy Bilyeau transforms Catherine's youthful adventures into a mystery with the highest of stakes. The Heiress of Northanger Abbey is a story of mothers and daughters, deception and desire-and of a woman who must learn to trust her power of perception before it's too late.

So my friends, what book(s) are you anxiously awaiting to read?
