Goodbye, Rebel Blue by Shelley Coriell
To be published: October 1, 2013 by Amulet Books
A young adult novel about bucket lists and boys, death and destiny.
Rebecca "Rebel" Blue, a loner rebel and budding artist, reluctantly completes the bucket list of Kennedy Green, an over-committed do-gooder classmate who dies in a car accident following a stint in detention where both girls were forced to consider their morality and write bucket lists. In this hilarious and life-changing journey, Rebel meets up with a nice boy, a gimpy dolphin, and a past she's tried to forget as this bad girl tries to do good. [goodreads]
I love the concept of bucket lists, and I really like how this girl is finishing another girl's bucket list that died before she could. With the mention of "life-changing journey" alongside a "nice boy" I am definitely intrigued to read more about this story!
"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
I'm excited for this one, too. I agree that the concept of finishing another girl's bucket list sounds so interesting. And I love that cover. Great pick!
