"Waiting on Wednesday" is a weekly event hosted by Jill from Breaking the Spine, that spotlight upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" is...
Title: Out of Play
Author: Nyrae Dawn and Jolene Perry
Expected Publication: August 6th 2013
Publisher: Entangled Teen
Pitched as Gayle Foreman's Where She Went meets Miranda Kenneally's Catching Jordan, a self-absorbed eighteen year old rock star is sent to Alaska to get himself together after a drug overdose, but the cute hockey player and her grandfather who live next door challenges him to think beyond the baggie of pills he's still sneaking.
Music and sport in one book? Hell yeah! I loved both Forman's Where She Went and Kenneally's Catching Jorday so when I saw this book is like a combination of the two I know I have to read this. Hopefully, it would be as great as those books mentioned above. I have also read books from these two authors so I'm pretty confident they'd make a good one.
Ohh two of the authors I'm looking forward reading has a collaboration! Totally love the synopsis and I'm loving the cover! this goes on my TBR pile! Awesome pick!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Waiting on Wednesday pick!

ReplyDeleteEunice you won me over from the first line, Where She Went and Catching Jordan are two of my most favourite reads ever! Also I love sports and music related books. I think this will be a definite win for me! Thanks for putting it on my radar! :)
