Waiting on Wednesday
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating. In my case not so patiently waiting for the new releases, which I lack.
This weeks choice is a YA mystery with supernatural elements.
My choice this week is....
Wink Poppy Midnight
by April Genevieve Tucholke
(Goodreads)
Synopsis
The intrigue of The Virgin Suicides and the "supernatural or not" question of The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer coalesce in this young adult mystery, where nothing is quite as it seems, no one is quite who you think, and everything can change on a dime.
Every story needs a hero.
Every story needs a villain.
Every story needs a secret.
Wink is the odd, mysterious neighbor girl, wild red hair and freckles. Poppy is the blond bully and the beautiful, manipulative high school queen bee. Midnight is the sweet, uncertain boy caught between them. Wink. Poppy. Midnight. Two girls. One boy. Three voices that burst onto the page in short, sharp, bewitching chapters, and spiral swiftly and inexorably toward something terrible or tricky or tremendous.
What really happened?
Someone knows.
Someone is lying.
For fans of Holly Black, We Were Liars, and The Raven Boys, this mysterious tale full of intrigue, dread, beauty, and a whiff of something strange will leave you utterly entranced.
What are you waiting on this week? I can't wait to add new books to my list.

I've seen so many people excited for this book today. I love the cover and the font and the summary sounds creepy but intriguing. I read April's debut and enjoyed her writing so I would try this one.

This is my first time seeing or hearing of this one. I really liked Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea. I will have to give this one a chance!
ReplyDeleteOoh that's totally new to me! I'm intrigued, yet still hesitant...might be one of those books I have to wait for the reviews on! I do hope you enjoy this one though!
