Waiting on Wednesday {28}

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.


As I Wake
by Elizabeth Scott (September 15, 2011)
What if you woke up and didn't know where you were?

What if you didn't know who you were?

And what if, when your memories started to come back--what if they didn't match the you that you're supposed to be?

Ava is welcomed home from the hospital by a doting mother, lively friends, and a crush finally beginning to show interest. There's only one problem: Ava can't remember any of them--and can't shake the eerie feeling that she's not who they say she is.

Ava struggles to break through her amnesiac haze as she goes through the motions of high-school life, but the memories that surface take place in a very different world, where Ava and familiar-faced friends are under constant scrutiny and no one can be trusted. Ava doesn't know what to make of these visions, or of the boy who is at the center of them all, until he reappears in her life and offers answers . . . but only in exchange for her trust. {taken from goodreads.com}

How freaking awesome does this book sound?!  First of all, it's ELIZABETH SCOTT! Love her!  Amnesia?! Mystery?! Random boy showing up out of nowhere?! Sign me up!!  I'm totally thrown by this cover, too because it's not your typical E Scott.  I'm lovin' it though.

**Side note - there's an Elizabeth Scott Week going on very, very soon. Have you signed up for it yet?!  You want to! I hear E Scott herself is giving away some pretty fantastic books.  Check it here.

What are you "waiting on" this Wednesday??

  9. This book sounds AMAZING, not to mention the crazy awesome cover! That is so cool. And I love the plot idea. I (shamefully) haven't read any of Elizabeth's other novels, but judging by what everyone says about her, methinks I need to rectify that asap!
