Waiting On Wednesday (32) Nobody But Us by Kristin Halbrook


"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:


Expected publication: January 29th 2013 by Harper Children's
272 Pages

Synopsis From Goodreads:
Two teenagers who, in search of a better life, run away to Vegas, but realize they can't run fast enough when they end up wanted by the police, out of money, and out of options, pitched as a YA Bonnie and Clyde.

Synopsis From The Book Depository:
Told in their separate voices, eighteen-year-old Will, who has aged out of foster care, and fifteen-year-old Zoe, whose father beats her, set out for Las Vegas together. But their escape may prove more dangerous than what they left behind.

I know January is a long way off, but I still can't wait for this book. I love a good contemporary, I enjoy alternating POVs, and it sounds like something I will enjoy reading. What are you waiting on this week?

  7. Hmmm...the different synopsis's make it sound like different reads. I don't like when they say what the book is like (Bonnie and Clyde) because most of the time it doesn't feel anything like that. I'd still give it a try though!
