"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted over at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating.
This week, what's really got my pages in a twist is...

Paperback, 368 pages, Swoon Reads
Genres:
YA, Contemporary
In the tradition of Alice
Hoffman’s Practical Magic, one girl chooses to change her fortune and her fate
by falling in love.
Love is real in the town of
Grimbaud, and Fallon Dupree has dreamed of attending high school there for
years. After all, generations of Duprees have successfully followed the (100%
accurate!) love fortunes from Zita’s famous Love Charms Shop to happily marry
their high school sweethearts. It’s a tradition. So she is both stunned and
devastated when her fortune states that she will NEVER find love.
Fortunately, Fallon isn’t the
only student with a terrible love fortune, and a rebellion is brewing. Fallon
is determined to take control of her own fate—even if it means working with a
notorious heartbreaker like Sebastian.
Will Fallon and Sebastian be able
to overthrow Zita’s tyranny and fall in love?
My Thoughts
So I actually didn’t read the blurb for this book until I
decided to post it as my WoW… I’m not sure how I feel about the premise, but
that cover is so AMAZING! I wish it was coming out in hardcover. Book nerd
problems. *sigh*
What book are you waiting for this Wednesday?
I think I already have this on my TBR list, hmm. I totally agree with you about the cover. It looks gorgeous! I just hope it'll be a good book too, not only one with a pretty cover. :D

I wish you really could tell if a book was good or not based on its cover, life would be so much simpler then... ;)
DeleteYour thoughts are spot on! The cover it what MAKES you want to read the blurb! Great Pick This Week!
