Waiting On Wednesday (51) How My Summer Went Up in Flames


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:


by Jennifer Salvato Doktorski
Hardcover, 320 pages
Expected publication: May 7th 2013 by Simon Pulse

Synopsis From Goodreads:

Rosie’s always been impulsive. She didn’t intend to set her cheating ex-boyfriend’s car on fire. And she never thought her attempts to make amends could be considered stalking. So when she’s served with a temporary restraining order on the first day of summer vacation, she’s heartbroken—and furious.

To put distance between Rosie and her ex, Rosie’s parents send her on a cross-country road trip with responsible, reliable neighbor Matty and his two friends. Forget freedom of the road, Rosie just wants to hitchhike home and win back her ex. But with every mile marker that passes, Rosie discovers a new sense of self…and that sometimes the best revenge is moving on.

This book sounds like it's going to be awesome. Road Trip! Summer Vacation! Female protagonist who is clearly unstable. Boy next door. What more could you ask for in a great book?

What are you waiting on this week?

      I love road trip books too. Although I have read a few duds this year. But this one looks promising.
