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:
What Happens Next by Colleen Clayton
Hardcover, 320 pages
Expected publication: October 9th 2012 by Poppy (Little Brown Books for Young Readers)
Synopsis From Goodreads:
How can you talk about something you can’t remember?
Before the ski trip, sixteen-year-old Cassidy “Sid” Murphy was a cheerleader (at the bottom of the pyramid, but still...), a straight-A student, and a member of a solid trio of best friends. When she ends up on a ski lift next to handsome local college boy, Dax Windsor, she’s thrilled; but Dax takes everything from Sid—including a lock of her perfect red curls—and she can’t remember any of it.
Back home and unable to relate to her old friends, Sid drops her college prep classes and takes up residence in the A/V room with only Corey “The Living Stoner” Livingston for company. But as she gets to know Corey (slacker, baker, total dreamboat), Sid finds someone who truly makes her happy. Now, if she can just shake the nightmares and those few extra pounds, everything will be perfect... or so she thinks.
I have had this stand-alone contemporary book on my TBR for quite a while. It sounds like this will be an emotional read, so I better keep the tissues within reach.
What are you waiting on this week?
Sounds interesting. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm a new follower. My WoW - http://www.wordsfueledbylove.blogspot.com/2012/10/waiting-on-opal.html
