“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 one I just found on Edelweiss, and it sounds so intriguing:

Everything Leads to You
Author: Nina LaCour

Publisher: Dutton Juvenile
Expected publication: May 15, 2014

A love letter to the craft and romance of film and fate in front of—and behind—the camera from the award-winning author of Hold Still.

A wunderkind young set designer, Emi has already started to find her way in the competitive Hollywood film world.

Emi is a film buff and a true romantic, but her real-life relationships are a mess. She has desperately gone back to the same girl too many times to mention. But then a mysterious letter from a silver screen legend leads Emi to Ava. Ava is unlike anyone Emi has ever met. She has a tumultuous, not-so-glamorous past, and lives an unconventional life. She’s enigmatic. She’s beautiful. And she is about to expand Emi’s understanding of family, acceptance, and true romance.

Firstly, the font treatment on that COVER. Holy moly. This is definitely on my list of best covers this year.

Secondly, I am a huge Hollywood book fan – and I love the idea that this one isn’t about an actress, but about someone who works behind the scenes and really loves movies.

Thirdly, I just love the sound of Ava – she sounds like a total manic pixie dream girl…but in the best sense of the term. I think it’ll be interesting to see how she opens up Emi’s world.

And can I just say, yay to LGBTQ YA that’s not just about a person coming out? =)
