Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly blogging event hosted by Breaking the Spine, in which one spotlights an upcoming release they are eagerly anticipating.

This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:

Title: Relax, I'm a Ninja

Author: Natalie Whipple

Release Date: June 3, 2014
Publisher: Self-Published

Summary (from Goodreads):

A Clan of ninjas in San Francisco may sound improbable—but as the son of a ninja master, Tosh Ito knows what lurks in the shadows of his city. Or at least he thought he did.

When a killer with a poisoned blade starts cutting down teens, Tosh enlists Amy Sato—newest ninja recruit and his best friend’s crush—and sets out to uncover the killer’s identity. What they find is ninjutsu more evil than they could have ever imagined.

As Amy and Tosh grow closer, they discover their connection unleashes a legendary power that could stop the murders. Problem is, that power may be exactly what the killer is looking for, and wielding it could cost them both their souls.

Why I'm Looking Forward To It: Not only is this the next book by one of my favorite authors, but IT'S ABOUT NINJAS, PEOPLE. NINJAS. I rarely read self-published books, but for a Natalie novel (about NINJAS *flails*) I will be utilizing all my mad ninja skills to get my hands on this book as soon as possible!

So what book are you waiting on?
