Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted over at Wishful Endings to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about and have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released, but not necessarily. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, which was originally hosted at Breaking the Spine.
My pick for this week is a chilling tale of a young widow, a church group with dark secrets, a wrong turn in the woods, and a terrifying prehistoric arachnid…

From the authors of the bestselling Awakened trilogy.
Megan Forrester has barely survived the unthinkable. Six months ago, she witnessed a horrific accident that killed her husband and son, and lives with the guilt of knowing she could have done more to save them. Now, Megan hopes to mend the pieces of her broken spirit by attending a local church group’s annual camping trip. But the church group members—riddled with dark secrets of their own—make a catastrophic navigational mistake, leaving them stranded in an untouched canyon in the West Virginian national forest.
Isolated from any chance of help or rescue, Megan and the others quickly realize why this side of the canyon has never been surveyed by humankind: it’s home to a terrifying prehistoric arachnid that patiently stalks its prey through even the slightest movement or vibration in the forest. And it’s desperate for a meal.
Grief-stricken and haunted by her tragic loss, Megan now faces her ultimate test of endurance. Can she outwit a bloodthirsty creature hellbent on ensuring that no one gets out of alive? When a single wrong turn can mean death, she only has one option: DON’T MOVE.

I already featured this and can’t wait. I also featured the same authors this week but it’s a book coming out in 2021. They have been busy it seems.

Wow, looks like these authors are starting a bunch of new projects, I just learned about another new book by them the other day. After the Awakened trilogy kinda fizzled for me, I think I’ll wait to see how this one goes, but I’m definitely intrigued by the description.

Yeah, Awakened was good but I had some issues. Giant spiders, though? Hard to resist. 😁
