Waiting on Wednesday (16)


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly book meme created and hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that bloggers and readers are anticipating. It's very easy to participate in the meme. All you need to do is make a post about an upcoming release that you're waiting on, make sure you've linked back to Breaking the Spine, and then add your name to the link-up tool.

This week, I'm waiting on a contemporary book that I've been wanting to read for a while now, and I'm happy because it comes out very, very soon. Like the end of next month soon. Can you guess? I bet you can...

Waiting On...


Title: The Start of Me and You
Author: Emery Lord
Publisher: Bloomsbury
Publication Date: March 31, 2015
Following her pitch-perfect debut Open Road Summer, Emery Lord pens another gorgeous story of best friends, new love, & second chances.

Brimming with heartfelt relationships and authentic high-school dynamics The Start of Me and You proves that it’s never too late for second chances.

It’s been a year since it happened—when Paige Hancock’s first boyfriend died in an accident. After shutting out the world for two years, Paige is finally ready for a second chance at high school . . . and she has a plan. First: Get her old crush, Ryan Chase, to date her—the perfect way to convince everyone she’s back to normal. Next: Join a club—simple, it’s high school after all. But when Ryan’s sweet, nerdy cousin, Max, moves to town and recruits Paige for the Quiz Bowl team (of all things!) her perfect plan is thrown for a serious loop. Will Paige be able to face her fears and finally open herself up to the life she was meant to live?

Why I'm Waiting...

To be honest, I've been wanting to read this Emery Lord book even more than I did her debut. After finally reading and loving Open Road Summer, I knew that this book was one that I would need on my shelves immediately because I am a sucker for emotional stories. The Start of Me and You promises just that, and I can't wait to finally sit down and read this one.

What are you waiting on this week? As always, feel free to let me know in the comments and leave a link to your Waiting on Wednesday post!
