“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 can’t-wait-for-it release is by an author whose older release made me cry:
A Blind Spot for Boys
Author: Justina Chen
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Expected publication: August 12th 2014
Shana has always had a blind spot for boys. Can she trust the one who’s right in front of her?
Sixteen-year-old Shana Wilde is officially on a Boy Moratorium. After a devastating breakup, she decides it’s time to end the plague of Mr. Wrong, Wrong, and More Wrong.
Enter Quattro, the undeniably cute lacrosse player who slams into Shana one morning in Seattle. Sparks don’t just fly; they ignite. And so does Shana’s interest. Right as she’s about to rethink her ban on boys, she receives crushing news: Her dad is going blind. Quattro is quickly forgotten, and Shana and her parents vow to make the most of the time her father has left to see. So they travel to Machu Picchu, and as they begin their trek, they run into none other than Quattro himself. But even as the trip unites them, Quattro pulls away mysteriously… Love and loss, humor and heartbreak collide in this new novel from acclaimed author Justina Chen.

This sounds great! I have a feeling it will have a bunch of feels (and likely tears) but it sounds right up my alley.
My WoW.
Oooh, nice pick! I haven't read anything by Justina Chen but North of Beautiful and Return to Me are on my wishlist. Will definitely look out for Blind Spot For Boys, I seem to be reading more and more contemporary books these days 🙂
My WoW!
Eh, not really my type of read, but I hope that you enjoy reading this when you do! 😀
