“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that book bloggers are eagerly anticipating.
This week’s WoW pick is coming out next week:
From Goodreads:
“Bono met his wife in high school,” Park says.
“So did Jerry Lee Lewis,” Eleanor answers.
“I’m not kidding,” he says.
“You should be,” she says, “we’re sixteen.”
“What about Romeo and Juliet?”
“Shallow, confused, then dead.”
”I love you,” Park says.
“Wherefore art thou,” Eleanor answers.
“I’m not kidding,” he says.
“You should be.”
“Bono met his wife in high school,” Park says.
“So did Jerry Lee Lewis,” Eleanor answers.
“I’m not kidding,” he says.
“You should be,” she says, “we’re sixteen.”
“What about Romeo and Juliet?”
“Shallow, confused, then dead.”
”I love you,” Park says.
“Wherefore art thou,” Eleanor answers.
“I’m not kidding,” he says.
“You should be.”
Set over the course of one school year in 1986, ELEANOR AND PARK is the story of two star-crossed misfits – smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try. When Eleanor meets Park, you’ll remember your own first love – and just how hard it pulled you under.
So apparently I am the LAST PERSON ON EARTH who hasn’t heard of this adorable novel. I’m losing myself all over it. It’s so twee, so whimsical – just look at the cover! 1986! First love! An Asian character! A blurb by Gayle Forman!
Seriously, how did I miss this one? You can bet that I’ll be running out for this next week.
I haven't heard of this one yet but it sounds really fun I definitely need to check it out

This sounds super cute. I'm not usually a contemporary fan but I think I'll be picking this up.
I heard of this one recently too, and I can't wait to read it. One of the early reviewers called it 'sweet, but not too sweet.' I'm hoping it lives up to my expectations. Nice pick!
If you'd like, you can check out my WoW here.
I already have this one on my to-read list and I'm really excited about it. Great pick! I hope you enjoy reading it when it comes out.
Come check out my WOW post.
I've heard some great things about it, but it doesn't sound like something for me. I hope you'll love it once you get the chance to read it! 🙂

The cover is very cute, but the premise is what makes me want to read this book. And read it I will. It sounds fantastic!
It sounds like a very cute story, Definitely going to check it out further.
Sounds like a fun read! I love the cover too! 🙂
I have only heard good things about this book.. i am currently reading it (though haven't cracked open the book yet) but I'm excited for it!

I've never heard of this book but I love the cover! Sounds like a fun read! I can't wait to read Scarlet by Marissa Meyer!
The cover is so cute. 🙂 It sounds great, too. I really need to read this now!
I know that I have already commented, but I am too excited to hold it in. I just brought this book home with me from the library and I am so excited to finally get started. The more that I hear about it, the better it sounds. Like it may just be up there with The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson, my first and absolute favorite contemporary!
There is huge buzz over this book! <3
