Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine, where we present the upcoming books we're most anticipating at the moment!
Since today is the first day of spring (hurray!) I decided to go with contemporaries!
So this week, the books are...
My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick
Out June 12th 2012
Blurb:
Blurb:
"One thing my mother never knew, and would disapprove of most of all, was that I watched the Garretts. All the time."
The Garretts are everything the Reeds are not. Loud, numerous, messy, affectionate. And every day from her balcony perch, seventeen-year-old Samantha Reed wishes she was one of them… until one summer evening Jase Garrett climbs her trellis and changes everything. As the two fall fiercely in love and stumble through the awkwardness and awesomeness of first romance, Jase's family makes Samantha one of their own - even as she keeps him a secret from her disapproving mother and critical best friend. Then the unthinkable happens, and the bottom drops out of Samantha's world. She's suddenly faced with an impossible decision. Which perfect family will save her? Or is it time she saved herself?
A debut novel about family, friendship, first romance, and how to be true to one person you love without betraying another.
I have a HUGE thing for boys next door. I love Meg Cabot's Boy Next Door and Stephanie Perkins Lola and the Boy Next Door. I hope this one doesn't disappoint me, because it sounds great!
Flirting in Italian by Lauren Henderson
Out June 12th 2012
Blurb:
Four girls. One magical, and possibly dangerous Italian summer. Family mysteries, ancient castles, long hot nights of dancing under the stars . . . and, of course, plenty of gorgeous Italian boys!
Doesn't it just sound adorable? I love Italy, it was one of the best trips of my life. I bet this book will remind me of it all the way.
I've seen a My Life Next Door on a few people's wish lists. I may have to check it out! Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Flirting in Italian has been on my wishlist for a while... I love books about traveling! You should check out Small Damages by Beth Kephart, which is coming out in July. It's pretty deep, about a teenager who gets pregnant and then shipped away, but it's a contemporary that takes place in Spain. :)
OdpowiedzUsuńCheck out my pick.
