Waiting On Wednesday is from Jill, at Breaking the Spine.
Want to Go Private? by Sarah Darer Littman
Abby and Luke chat online. They've never met. But they are going to. Soon.
Abby is starting high school—it should be exciting, so why doesn't she care? Everyone tells her to "make an effort," but why can't she just be herself? Abby quickly feels like she's losing a grip on her once-happy life. The only thing she cares about anymore is talking to Luke, a guy she met online, who understands. It feels dangerous and yet good to chat with Luke—he is her secret, and she's his. Then Luke asks her to meet him, and she does. But Luke isn't who he says he is. When Abby goes missing, everyone is left to put together the pieces. If they don't, they'll never see Abby again.

How long have I been waiting on this? FOREVER! I've seen a few other bloggers that have already had the privilege of reading this, and I haven't heard anything really negative about it. I'm so excited!
I have this one on my wish list as well! I hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of it but it's on my list now!

This one sounds really interesting. You hear stories like that on the news all the time, but I've never seen the subject used in a novel before.
ReplyDeleteMy WOW
I actually haven't heard of this one before. I'm definitely intrigued now though!

I was recently lucky enough to read this, and although I had a few issues with it, overall I found it to be a compelling read and recommend it :) I hope when you finally get it that you enjoy it!

I'm curious to see how this book goes myself! I have a feeling it will be either really good or just won't work for me.
ReplyDeleteI think this story explores and interesting thing that actually happens in life. With all of those paranormal stories out right now this one sounds like a great contemporary about a real issue.
