Waiting On Wednesday (24) From What I Remember


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we are eagerly anticipating.

My choice for this week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:


From What I Remember... by Stacy Kramer, Valerie Thomas

Hardcover, 462 pages
Expected publication: May 15th 2012 by Hyperion

Synopsis From Goodreads:

KYLIE: Tijuana WHAT? I should be putting the finishing touches on my valedictorian speech. Graduation is TODAY, and is this a wedding band on my finger.

MAX: It all started with Kylie's laptop and a truck full of stolen electronics Okay, it was kind of hot, the way she broke us out like some chick in an action movie. But now we're stranded in Tijuana. With less than twenty-four hours before graduation. Awesome.

WILL: Saving Kylie Flores from herself is kind of a full-time occupation. Luckily, I, Will Bixby, was born for the job. And when I found out she was stuck in Mexico with dreamy Max Langston, sure, I agreed to bring their passports across the border--but there's no reason to rush back home right away. This party is just getting started.

LILY: I just walked in on my boyfriend, Max Langston, canoodling with Kylie Flores, freak of the century. Still, I can't completely hold it against him. He NEEDS me. It's even clearer now. And I'm not giving him up without a fight.


Why do I want to read it?

I love a good contemporary, and this one sounds pretty intriguing. I also enjoy stories with more than one POV if the author can and make it work. This sounds like the perfect book to read at the end of the school year. (My kids last day of school is May 21. Next year my daughter will be a freshman and my son will be a senior. Please pray for my sanity.)
