"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted here, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
The Bird Sisters
By Rebecca Rasmussen 
Publication Date: April 12
From Amazon:
Love is timeless. So too is heartbreak. Whenever a bird flies into a window in Spring Green, Wisconsin, sisters Milly and Twiss get a visit. Twiss listens to the birds' heartbeats, assessing what she can fix and what she can't, while Milly listens to the heartaches of the people who've brought them. The two sisters have spent their lives nursing people and birds back to health.

You always find something so interesting and different! I'll be on the look out for this one as well!
Sounds like an interesting book. I bet it's a tearjerker. I wonder what Twiss is short for.
Beautiful pick! I love the story, the cover and the name Twiss. I'm definitely writing this one down. Thanks!

The Bird Sisters sounds excellent, and this is the first I've heard of it. Thanks for sharing another great WoW pick & for hosting this fun meme. :)
The Bird Sisters sounds interesting-- I'd never heard of it before now. Maybe not my cup of tea-- I have a pretty severe case of ornithophobia. :)

Nice choice! I love the sound of it, :)
I've never heard of this one before! Awesome choice this week! :)
I hope I did this right! Thanks so much for hosting this.
Oh, and I like the title of your pick. I'd never heard of this one before.
Love the cover. Hope its worth the wait!
Interesting blurb. I'm a Wisconsin girl so I'll have to check it out!
Wow, this looks AMAZING! It's right up my alley. Great pick!
I inadvertently signed up twice. Is there a way to delete the second entry. I promise next week I'll be better at this!
Interesting storyline. I love feeding the birds and watching them in our birdbath ;) Have a great week!
Joy at Books and Life
Great pick! I need to check it to!
Happy Readings
Jill you picked another one that will cause the reader some emotional outbursts, sounds like a great story though! Hope you get to read it come April!
jackie>_<
That really is an interesting pick. It sounds very deep and meaningful. Two sisters who look after broken hearts...I think I may have to check that one out. My WOW pick is quite different from yours: http://preview.tinyurl.com/WOWllw

I've been anxiously waiting for this one too!
This is my first time participating in Waiting on Wednesday. Thanks for hosting this meme! I can't wait to see what everyone else is waiting for!
Hmmm, it sounds different, not something I'd pick up and read just from the summary. What I do like about it is its breaking new ground.
This sounds interesting. I love the cover.
Looks nice ^^!
Ooh, I so want to read this one -- I love the cover!
Sounds like a "noteworthy" title we would carry at Barnes and Noble.
I just found your site and I really like it. I am not following.
Like the sound of this!
Is this magical realism? Fantasy? Something else entirely? Sounds like it really straddles genres, which I love, as long as it's done well.
Wow -- I just found this. Ahem, I am the author of The Bird Sisters...and I want to thank everyone for commenting so graciously and for being excited. I am doing a happy dance in my living room right now. Truly. Thank you, Jill and everyone. Finding this made my night :)
