Waiting on Wednesday


Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine. They're like, super awesomely cool so go follow them.



This week I'm waiting on...
Zoe, Jake, Mia, Gregor, and Whitney meet at freshman orientation. At the end of that first day, they make a promise to reunite after graduation. So much can happen in those in-between years….

Zoe feels like she will live forever in her famous mother’s shadow. Jake struggles to find the right connections in friendship and in love. Mia keeps trying on new identities, looking for one that actually fits. Gregor thoughthe wanted to be more than just a band geek. And Whitney seems to have it all, until it’s all falling apart around her.

Echoing aspects of John Hughes’s The Breakfast Club, Carolyn Mackler skillfully brings the stories of these five disparate teens together to create a distinct and cohesive whole—a novel about how we can all affect one another’s lives in the most unexpected and amazing ways.


Coming out September 1st-ish.

  1. Oh this one sounds good. I haven't read a Carolyn Mackler book since The Earth My Butt and Other Round Things, but this one sounds especially interesting cause it takes place over 4 years. I'm curious to see how she pulls off multiple POV and many years. Thanks for sharing!
