Waiting On Wednesday 32


Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that highlights an upcoming book release that we are eagerly anticipating.

Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson. Released 8th May 2012.

Taylor's family might not be the closest-knit – everyone is a little too busy and overscheduled – but for the most part, they get along fine. Then Taylor's dad gets devastating news that changes everything. Her parents decide that the family will spend the summer together at their old vacation home in the Pocono Mountains.

Crammed into a place much smaller and more rustic than they are used to, they begin to get to know each other again. And Taylor discovers that the people she thought she had left behind haven’t actually gone anywhere. Her former summer best friend is still around, as is her first boyfriend. . . and he's much cuter at seventeen than he was at twelve.

As the summer progresses, the Edwards become more of a family, and closer than they’ve ever been before. But all of them are very aware that they’re battling a ticking clock. Sometimes, though, there is just enough time to get a second chance – with family, with friends, and with love.

I am so unbelievably excited for this book. I loved Amy and Roger's Epic Detour it was one of my favourite books last year and although this one doesn't involve a road-trip I am sure it's going to be excellent.

That's all for now.

    This is a popular WoW pick this week! Every time I see it it's like the universe is telling me 'read it, read it, reeeead it' OKAY I WILL! It's a new discovery for me, but I loved Epic Detour so I'm interested in more of what Morgan Matson writes!
