Waiting on Wednesday #24: What I Thought Was True by Huntley Fitzpatrick


Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, which spotlights upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating.

The book I'm eagerly looking forward to is:
 
What I Thought Was True 
 
  What I Thought Was True by Huntley Fitzpatrick
Expected Publication Date: April 15th 2014
Publisher: Dial Books for Young Readers


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



I loved My Life Next Door! Jase Garrett people! *sigh* Plus, who didn’t love the Garretts?! So yes, I can’t wait for this one.

I actually just received this one in the mail yesterday and I can't wait to dive in. I had a LOT of issues with My Life Next Door but there were many aspects of the story that I loved as well so I'm hoping this companion works out better for me. Plus, the cover is absolutely breathtaking. Lovely pick, Rachel!

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes Rachel! I cannot wait for this book, I adored My Life Next Door. *peeks out window looking for Jase* Unfortunately, there are no hot guy next door neighbors in my life. I got screwed in that department, so I'll just have to live vicariously through books!
