Because we all have something we're waiting for.

Sapphire Blue
Author: Kerstin Gier
Series: Edelstein Trilogie (#2)
Release Date: 30 October 2012

Gwen’s life has been a rollercoaster since she discovered she was the Ruby, the final member of the secret time-traveling Circle of Twelve. In between searching through history for the other time-travelers and asking for a bit of their blood (gross!), she’s been trying to figure out what all the mysteries and prophecies surrounding the Circle really mean. At least Gwen has plenty of help. Her best friend Lesley follows every lead diligently on the Internet. James the ghost teaches Gwen how to fit in at an eighteenth century party. And Xemerius, the gargoyle demon who has been following Gwen since he caught her kissing Gideon in a church, offers advice on everything. Oh, yes. And of course there is Gideon, the Diamond. One minute he’s very warm indeed; the next he’s freezing cold. Gwen’s not sure what’s going on there, but she’s pretty much destined to find out

I adored the first book in this series enough that I've reread it and kept my copy - both rare things for me nowadays. I'm excited to see what happens next. (Also, did I mention the lack of a love triangle!? Squeegiggle.)

Seriously, though; Ruby Red was of the best sci-fi/fantasy novels I've encountered in a while, so I'm excited to see in which direction the sequel goes.

Also, cover lust!
