Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I am spending the day at work hoping to squeeze in my other half....of the book I'm currently reading because I'm single but hey tomorrow chocolate goes on sale! Can't
Wait Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Wishful Endings. Waiting on Wednesday has been don for some
time so I am switching it up for now!
Basically books that are not yet out that we are dying to get our hands
on. This week’s pick is:
Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli
Out: 4/24
From
Goodreads:
Leah
Burke—girl-band drummer, master of deadpan, and Simon Spier’s best friend from
the award-winning Simon vs. the Homo
Sapiens Agenda—takes center stage in this novel of first love and
senior-year angst.
When
it comes to drumming, Leak Burke is usually on beat—but real life isn’t always
so rhythmic. An anomaly in her friend
group, she’s the only child of a young, single mom, and her life is decidedly less
privileged. She loves to draw but is too
self-conscious to show it. And even
thought her mom knows she’s bisexual, she hasn’t mustered the courage to tell
her friends—not even her openly gay BFF, Simon.
So
Leah really doesn’t know what to do when her rock-solid friend group starts to
fracture in unexpected ways. With prom and
college on the horizon, tensions are running high. It’s hard for Leah to strike the right note
while the people she loves are fighting—especially when she might love one of
them more than she ever intended.
Why I’m
Waiting:
I loved Simon
so of course I want to know more about this world and these characters.
What
are you waiting on? Tell me below what
you think of this title and leave a link to your WoW as well so I can check it
