This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
The Promised World
By Lisa Tucker
Publication Date: September 1
From Publishers Weekly:
"Engrossing and suspenseful, Tucker’s remarkable fourth novel unveils the motives behind the curious behavior and superfluous lies of unusually close-knit fraternal twins. Brilliant but mercurial Billy Cole, estranged from his wife, Ashley, commits suicide after losing visitation rights to his children. After Billy’s death, his fragile twin, Lila, immediately begins to break down, recalling bizarre incidents and feeling overwhelmed by dread. Once her husband, Patrick, who always prized reason over emotion, hears from Ashley that the twins lied about their parents being dead, he connects with Lila’s mother, Barbara, and gets a very different picture of the twins’ past. By rotating points of view between Lila, Patrick, Billy and Ashley, Tucker fleshes out the story, leaving readers understanding how both guileless and malevolent actions can be misconstrued."

I'm a little late, but I finally have my WoW up...
Waiting on Wednesday: Hey, Where Did Those Deformed Triplets Come From? Oh, Divine Conception You Say.
I had to re-read the blurb for your pick a couple of times...it seems like one very tangled web, but interesting nonetheless.

My pick wont come out until June of next year, I can't wait to read it though.
