Waiting on Wednesday (#6)

This little gem is hosted over at Breaking the Spine.

One book I can't wait to sink my grubby little claws into  is:

Cleopatra Ascending by Maureen Lipinski

Sweet Sixteen = You're a Queen

Despite living with a shaman, a witch, and a muse for sisters, Rhea Spencer feels like a normal teenager-even if she is the reincarnation of Cleopatra. But all that changes on Rhea's sixteenth birthday, when her visions of the Egyptian queen start unraveling a very different version of history, and Declan, a hot representative of the secret Order of Antony, shows up on the doorstep to keep her from being kidnapped. Together, Rhea and Declan travel to Egypt to stop the Octavians, a dark cabal trying to tap into Rhea's growing powers. The cabal seeks to access the magic deep below the desert sands, a potentially devastating force that only Rhea can protect. (Goodreads blurb)

The Why:
Cleopatra. Egypt. Witches. Shamans. Queens. A hot representative of the secret Order. I mean ahem. What's NOT to want?
