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: September 13th 2016 by Knopf Books for Young Readers
Synopsis from Goodreads:
Hanging out with Chris was supposed to make Lorelei’s life normal. He’s cooler, he’s older, and he’s in a band, which means he can teach her about the music that was forbidden in her house growing up. Her grandmother told her when she was little that she was never allowed to sing, but listening to someone else do it is probably harmless— right?
The more she listens, though, the more keenly she can feel her own voice locked up
in her throat, and how she longs to use it. And as she starts exploring the power her grandmother never wanted her to discover, influencing Chris and everyone around her, the foundations of Lorelei’s life start to crumble. There’s a reason the women in her family never want to talk about what their voices can do.
And a reason Lorelei can’t seem to stop herself from singing anyway.
This is categorized as Fantasy / Contemporary / Magical Realism...... 2 of these genres I don't normally read, but this book sounds awesome!! So I'll be giving this a whirl to see how I like it.
What are you waiting on this week?
Nice! That's a new to me one! Doesn't sound like my kind of read but hope you thoroughly enjoy it once you read it!
