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

Wednesday has become my favorite day of the week because I get to share the books that I am super excited about and can't wait to read.

Expected publication: May 3rd 2016 by Sourcebooks Fire

Synopsis from Goodreads:

The summer before Ivy’s senior year is going to be golden; all bonfires, barbeques, and spending time with her best friends. For once, she will just get to be. No summer classes, none of Granddad’s intense expectations to live up to the family name. For generations, the Milbourn women have lead extraordinary lives—and died young and tragically. Granddad calls it a legacy, but Ivy considers it a curse. Why else would her mother have run off and abandoned her as a child?

But when her mother unexpectedly returns home with two young daughters in tow, all of the stories Ivy wove to protect her heart start to unravel. The very people she once trusted now speak in lies. And all of Ivy’s ambition and determination cannot defend her against the secrets of the Milbourn past…

Another contemporary this week. I have an eArc that I will be reading soon, and I hope I like it!

What are you waiting on this week?

      This is a contemporary, so it's different for her. (I also just borrowed A Tyranny of Petticoats from the library, an anthology that she is included in.)
      Thanks for stopping by today Ali.

    This is the first time I've seen this book! I guess it's getting to be close to that time, where we get all our nice summery, sweet contemporary books~ Thanks for sharing it!

    Contemporary YA isn't always my thing, but that summary sure is interesting. Good pick!

    I have not read a Spotswood book in so long! I liked Born Wicked but never continued with the series. I hope you enjoy this book when you get a chance to read it!

    Thanks for visiting my blog! Have a fabulous week, Sandra. :)

    Just reading the synopsis makes me want to cry....but I think this book will be well worth it! I'm very intrigued about Ivy's family, and how everything she thought she knew about them will be turned upside down. I'd also like to know just why her mother left her, only to return with TWO daughters! I want to hate her for leaving Ivy, but I guess I should hold back my judgment until I find out why she did what she did. GREAT pick!! :)

    Thanks for dropping by and commenting on my WOW!! :)
