Featured excerpt from the book at USA TODAY.
First of all, I am still in love with the new Dessen covers and her next book is aiding my love for them even more by following suit. Second, IT'S SARAH DESSEN. She is one of those YA contemporary authors that I will always read. ALWAYS. I've said it in multiple reviews before, and I'll say it again, she is that GO TO author that I'll recommend to anyone who wants a well-rounded YA contemporary story. She brings so much to every story she writes. This woman owns it.
After reading the excerpt featured on USA Today, I got even more excited for this novel. I adore the beach side town of Colby and I can not wait to go back and visit it again with a story of new characters, which will be instant new loves!
"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

ReplyDeleteI agree! I am so excited for this book. It's my pick for WoW as well. The Moon and More will be coming with me to the beach this summer!
ReplyDeleteOh Sarah Dessen, how I love thee!
ReplyDeleteSo excited for this one! I really do need to read a lot of her older stuff though because I've only read a few.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds really good! I know this is super crazy but I have never read a Sarah Dessen book. Have a ton on my TBR list but haven't gotten around to it yet! Will have to rectify this soon. :)
ReplyDeleteMy Wow Pick!
Eeeeek yes!!!! SARAH DESSEN ALL THE WAY! I was so excited when I saw that she had a new book coming out! But JUNE IS TOO FAR AWAY!
ReplyDeleteI'll always read Sarah Dessen too! Her along with John Green and Sarah Ockler are my go-to contemporary YA authors. :)
ReplyDeleteI am waiting for this one as well. It looks like the perfect book for the summer time and it comes out just in time :)
ReplyDeleteI can't WAIT for this book too. I buy every one of her books, sometimes even without reading the blurb. Because if it's Sarah Dessen, then you just KNOW it's gonna be good!
