Waiting on Wednesday #12


Is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, which spotlights upcoming releases were eagerly anticipating.

The book I'm most excited about this week is...


 Right of Way
 Lauren Barnholdt
 Publication date: July 9th 2013.

 
The road to heartbreak takes a lot of turns.

Here are Peyton and Jace, meeting on vacation. Click! It’s awesome, it’s easy, it’s romantic. This is the real deal.

Unless it isn’t.

Because when you’re in love, you don’t just stop calling one day. And you don’t keep secrets. Or lie. And when your life starts falling apart, you’re supposed to have the other person to lean on.

Here are Peyton and Jace again, broken up but thrown together on a road trip. One of them is lying about the destination. One of them is pretending not to be leaving something behind.

Neither of them is prepared for what’s coming on the road ahead…

Did someone say road trip? I adore books with road trips, especially ones set in the U.S (I’m assuming this one is!). These books tend to make me even more eager to visit the U.S one day and just road trip from one state to the other.

Right of Way also reminds me a bit of Saving June/Amy and Roger’s Epic Detour, both involved some sort of heartache for the main characters and of course the characters were forced to road trip together. I seem to enjoy it when characters are pushed into awkward situations together; it tends to bring out a lot more tension which seems to make the best reads for me these days.

Also who’s lying about what? What’s the other leaving behind? And what’s in store for them on the road ahead? I need to know these things! It sucks that we have to wait all the way until July 2013 to find out!

So that’s my wow for this week, are you guys waiting on anything too? Leave a link in the comments below and I’ll come check it out.

Wow, that is awhile to wait. I want to read more road trip books! There are very few states I've actually been too, so reading about them are kind of fun.

I can't believe I haven't heard of this one before!! I love all road trip books, and I'm sure that this book will be no exception. Reading road trips makes me want to jump into a car and start driving (too bad I can't drive yet... =P)! I just love the feel of rad trip books.

Another road trip book from Lauren Barnholdt! Eeep! I need to see this. Road trips are always fun to read. And just like you, they make me really want to visit U.S. someday and do a roadtrip! Maybe we could do that together, Jasprit? Haha! Thanks for sharing this. Awesome pick! :)

Ah, this description actually reminded me a bit of Two Way Street, and then I realised it's by the same author XD I'm so dumb sometimes. This is an awesome choice <3 Road-trip books are a favourite of mine too :)

Thanks for sharing.

Not something I'd normally read, so I haven't read any of her books before, but this one sounds like a nice try. I'm always willing to read outside my comfort zone sometimes ^^

Take a look at my WoW.

Sam (Realm of Fiction) said...

I haven't read anything by this author before, so maybe this will be the first book? I like the sound of it! The only roadtrip book I can remember reading is Saving June, and I loved that, so hopefully I can say the same thing about this one. Great pick, Jasprit! :)

Suzanne (Parabooklover) said...
