Featuring books that I really want to read but haven't actually made it to my embarrassingly large TBR pile yet.
I do enjoy retellings, and I have high hopes for this twist on the Anastasia story. And the cover image is so cool. It's dynamic, sparkly, and a little dangerous. Unfortunately, Last of Her Name will have to wait for the summer when I have more time for a 400 page book.

Release Date: February 26, 2019
Sixteen years ago, rebellion swept the galaxy known as the Belt of Jewels. Every member of the royal family was murdered--down to their youngest child, Princess Anya--and the Union government rose in its place. But Stacia doesn't think much about politics. She spends her days half-wild, rambling her father's vineyard with her closest friends, Clio and Pol.
That all changes the day a Union ship appears in town, carrying the leader of the Belt himself, the Direktor Eminent. The Direktor claims that Princess Anya is alive, and that Stacia's sleepy village is a den of empire loyalists, intent on hiding her. When Stacia is identified as the lost princess, her provincial home explodes into a nightmare.
