"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted by Jill from Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Don't Stop Now by Julie Halpern
On the first day of Lillian’s summer-before-college, she gets a message on her cell from her sort-of friend, Penny. Not only has Penny faked her own kidnapping, but Lil is the only one who figures it out. She knows that Penny’s home life has been rough, and that her boyfriend may be abusive. Soon, Penny’s family, the local police, and even the FBI are grilling Lil, and she decides to head out to Oregon, where Penny has mentioned an acquaintance. And who better to road-trip across the country with than Lil’s BFF, Josh. But here’s the thing: Lil loves Josh. And Josh doesn’t want to “ruin” their amazing friendship.
Josh has a car and his dad’s credit card. Lil has her cellphone and a hunch about where Penny is hiding. There’s something else she needs to find: Are she and Josh meant to be together?
This sounds like it'd be a really cool read. Great Choice.
ReplyDeleteI love how much is going on with this book, and the two separate yet merging plot lines has me quite curious how this one will play out. Great pick

ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard of this one before but I like that it combines mystery + romance + a roadtrip! Awesome. Plus the whole friend-turned-boyfriend type of romance can be so cute :)
