Waiting on Wednesday {8}

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases you are eagerly anticipating.

Lola and the Boy Next Door will be released on September 29th 2011 and I am excited to have this in my bookshelf!

In this companion novel to Anna and the French Kiss, two teens discover that true love may be closer than they think.

For budding costume designer Lola Nolan, the more outrageous, the outfit—more sparkly, more fun, more wild—the better. But even though Lola’s style is outrageous, she’s a devoted daughter and friend with some big plans for the future. And everything is pretty perfect (right down to her hot rocker boyfriend) until the dreaded Bell twins move back into the house next door.

When the family returns and Cricket—a gifted inventor and engineer—steps out from his twin sister’s shadow and back into Lola’s life, she must finally reconcile a lifetime of feelings for the boy next door.

Christina Reads YA: Yay! What a great choice! I loved Anna & the French Kiss. My friends recently have been talking about how short guys aren't all that attractive and I told them to read that book. Stephanie Perkins does such a good job with creating romantic tension :).

One thing I wish they did for Lola's cover though was show more of Lola's outrageous fashion style. But oh well :). I'm still going to read it & love the fact that the romantic interest is the boy next door.; May 4, 2011 at 11:54 PM
