Waiting on Wednesday (81)

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill of Breaking the Spine where book bloggers devote a post to an upcoming book release they are particularly looking forward to reading.

THIS WEEK'S PICK:
WHAT I THOUGHT WAS TRUE BY HUNTLEY FITZPATRICK

From the author of My Life Next Door comes a swoony, summertime romance full of expectation and regret, humor and had questions.

Gwen Castle's Biggest Mistake Ever, Cassidy Somers, is slumming it as a yard boy on her Nantucket-esque island this summer. He's a rich kid from across the bridge in Stony Bay, and she fails from a family of fishermen and housecleaners who keep the island's summer people happy. Gwen worries a life of cleaning houses will be her fate too, but just when it looks like she'll never escape her past--or the island--Gwen's dad gives her some shocking advice. Sparks fly and secret histories unspool as Gwen spends a gorgeous, restless summer struggling to resolve what she thought was true--about the place she lives, the people she loves, and even herself--with what really is.

A magnetic, push-me-pull-me romance with depth, this is for fans of Sarah Dessen, Jenny Han, and Deb Caletti.


This book has "Emilie" written all over it. I'll admit that I still haven't read Huntley Fitzpatrick's My LIfe Next Door, but I plan to get to it in the very near future. Regardless, I can't wait to read What I Thought Was True. I'm a sucker for summer stories that are more than just about people enjoying their time in the sun. So yeah, I will be reading this one as soon as I can. Or at least I'll try.


What I Thought Was True by Huntley Fitzpatrick will be published April 15, 2014 by Dial Books for Young Readers.
