Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spines. This is a cool way to spotlight a upcoming release that you're anxious about, as well as checking out what other book lovers are anticipating as well. So, check out my WoW this week:
Underneath
by Sarah Jamila Stevenson
Expected publication: June 8th 2013
Publisher: Flux
Synopsis via Goodreads:
The story of a girl who develops the power to hear thoughts in the wake of a family tragedy.
*I absolutely love the cover art. Don't you? And I like the theme coming across. Hearing thoughts is my new addiction.
Tides
by Betsy Cornwell
Expected publication: June 4th 2013
Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
Synopsis via Goodreads:
When high-school senior Noah Gallagher and his adopted teenage sister, Lo, go to live with their grandmother in her island cottage for the summer, they don’t expect much in the way of adventure. Noah has landed a marine biology internship, and Lo wants to draw and paint, perhaps even to vanquish her struggles with bulimia. But then things take a dramatic turn for them both when Noah mistakenly tries to save a mysterious girl from drowning. This dreamlike, suspenseful story—deftly told from multiple points of view—dives deeply into selkie folklore while examining the fluid nature of love and family.
*Both stories seem intriguing. I haven't read much in either genres so I'm definitely looking forward to a fresh start.
