Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking The Spine where you can spotlight an upcoming release that you're eagerly anticipating!
This week I'm waiting on:
My Last Kiss by Bethany Neal
What if your last kiss was with the wrong boy?
Cassidy Haines remembers her first kiss vividly. It was on the old covered bridge the summer before her freshman year with boyfriend of three years, Ethan Keys. But her last kiss- the one she shared with someone at her seventeenth birthday party the night she died- is a blur. Cassidy is trapped in the living world, not only mourning the loss of her human body, but left with the grim suspicion that her untimely death wasn't a suicide as everyone assumes. She can't remember anything from the weeks leading up to her birthday and she's worried that she may have betrayed her boyfriend.
If Cassidy is to uncover the truth about that fateful night and make amends with the only boy she'll ever love, she must face her past and all the decisions she made- good and bad- that led to her last kiss.
Why I'm waiting:
First of all, THAT COVER!! Isn't it just beautiful?! That's what originally caught my eye about My Last Kiss. This book kind of reminds me of Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver, and I absolutely LOVED that book! The synopsis for this one grabbed me right away, because I couldn't imagine dying and knowing that I may have screwed up things with the only love of my life! My curiosity is definitely piqued with this one, and I cannot wait to get my hands on a copy! :)

What do you think of my choice?
What's your choice for this week's WoW?
Let me know in the comments, and leave me a link to your WoW post, so I can leave some comment love on yours!!
Also, if you followed me, I would love you forever and ever! LET ME LOVE YOU!! *cough* Sorry if that was creepy, but I need MORE book loving friends!! You can never have too many! That's what I always say (or type, in this case!!)
"LET ME LOVE YOU!!" Bwahaha! Ahem... Okay, maybe it was a little creepy *backs away slooowly* jk ;)
ReplyDeleteI have not heard of that book, actually. I do love a good mystery, so I might have to look into it ;)
As for what book I'm waiting for... Ever hear of a series called Mythos Academy? Last book if the series, Killer Frost, comes out next month! And, okay, I'm not really waiting, per se, since I have an ARC... But can you feel the peer pressure?! *shoves "Touch of Frost" (Book #1) by Jennifer Estep into your face* CAN YOU FEEEL IT?!?! *evil laugh*
P.S. Sorry for being weird... It's been a long day and I feel kind of delirious, LOL
HAHAHAHAHA! All the Valentine's crap is making me delirious with the need to love more people, okay? Uhhh... anyways lol ;)
DeleteI just heard of this one last week, bc of the abundance of ARCs in the air so I checked it out, and I NEEDS IT!
*hangs head in shame* Yes I feel the pressure!!! Quit goading me into buying more books!! I ALREADY HAVE TWO BOOKSHELVES OF BOOKS THAT NEED READING!! (but I can't staaaahp!!!!!)
P.P.S. Keep being weird- I like it! LOL! :)
Nice! This one's new to me! Hope you love it!
ReplyDeleteHere's my WoW
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
Thanks Jessica!!! :)
DeleteAwesome pick! I love the cover too. And now that you mentioned it, it does kind of remind me of Before I Fall! Stories like this always make me a bit sad though, because it's hard to have a happily ever after, but yes, this one sounds really good. (PS. I think it's Netgalley for request right now).
ReplyDeleteHere's my WoW at Book Munchies (:
I know, right?! It's totes bittersweet, but it sounds so good!!!! Isn't Netgalley an e-reader thing? I don't have an e-reader!! *hangs head in shame*
DeleteI love the cover too! And now that you mentioned it, it does remind me of Before I Fall (which yes, was awesome haha). These types of books almost make me a little sad though b/c it's harder to get a happily ever after (since she's dead), but it does sound really good! Great pick!
ReplyDelete(PS. I think it's on Netgalley for request right now).
Here's my WoW at Book Munchies (:
I definitely love the cover as well :) I'll be interested in reading this book, great pick.
ReplyDeleteMy WoW :)
Jackie @Jackie's Book World
Thanks Jackie!! :)
DeleteI am really looking forward to this one too! It's on my most anticipated book list for this year! I really love how the cover fits the summary so good!
ReplyDeleteGreat pick! Can't wait :)
AH! It's definitely one of mine as well!!! Thanks for stopping by Margie! :)
DeleteI got this one this week! I'm really looking forward to it. It sounds really interesting and, from what I've gathered, it's about a dead girl trying to find her killer? Maybe? Too lazy to recheck and read the synopsis. But if that's accurate, it sounds awesome.
ReplyDeleteYou lucky ducky!!! I think that's what it's ultimately about. I mean the synopsis doesn't technically mention that, but I think that's because she says she doesn't remember the few days before her death and she doesn't think she committed suicide! Either way, I'm extremely excited for it and I can't wait to hear what you think of it!!!
DeleteThat cover is very pretty and very eye catching. This one sounds really good
ReplyDeleteTeresa @ Readers Live A Thousand Lives
I know! I love everything about it!! Thanks for stopping by Teresa :)
DeleteLET ME LOVE YOU! I died. Seriously! BUT OMG. This book.... sounds amazing! I hadn't heard of it before, but I'm so going to be putting it on the TBR! The cover is TOTALLY GORGEOUS (I'm in love with the title treatment and that photo!) and the synopsis does remind me of Before I Fall. I loved that one too!!
ReplyDeleteHaha noooo, don't die!! I <3 you too much!! Haha, I'm glad someone gets my humor..even if it comes off a little creepy! I adore anything Lauren Oliver so Before I Fall is def one of my favs! I'm hoping this one is just as good, or if not, better!!! But heck, this book is pretty enough just for me to display on my shelf, so if I don't like it, I won't be *too* incredibly disappointed! LOL!
DeleteAmazing pick! That cover is gorgeous! ^_^
