"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:
Big Girl Small
Publication Date: March 29
From Amazon:
Judy Lohden is your above-average sixteen-year-old—sarcastic and vulnerable, talented and uncertain, full of big dreams for a big future. With a singing voice that can shake an auditorium, she should be the star of Darcy Academy, the local performing arts high school. So why is a girl this promising hiding out in a seedy motel room on the edge of town?
The fact that the national media is on her trail after a controversy that might bring down the whole school could have something to do with it. And that scandal has something—but not everything—to do with the fact that Judy is three feet nine inches tall.
What's your "waiting on" pick this week?

OMG I love this idea. SO AMAZING :) and the book u picked looks really interesting. I might give it a try...
I hardly ever do this, but I'm always reading these. It took me a while, though, to get in my head the host of this meme. Fun meme - thanks for hosting. :)
This one definitely sounds like an interesting read - very different from anything I've read before. Great pick!

I just joined this weekly event, and I have to say that it is a great way to keep in touch with the books that are yet to be released.
Hope you'll like my picks on my blog.
Your picks are always so interesting, they're making my TBR pile grow! Thanks, as always :)
I love your WoW this week! I actually have this book in my possession but haven't had a chance to read it yet. It sounds really good though. :-)

Thank you for hosting! Have a great Wednesday!
That sounds like a really good book! I left my link!
Haha! That blurb is absolutely fantastic. I might have to check this one out. Thanks for hosting!
This week's pick sounds different :)
I've seen this one around and thought it looked great. Excellent choice this week.
Sounds like a fascinating book with a very unique protagonist-- I don't think I've ever read a book with a 'little person' has the protagonist. Hope you enjoy it when it's released!
That certainly sounds like it has a unique plot!
I certainly haven't heard of Big Girl Small, it definitely sounds unique.
My WOW is a little different.

What an interesting twist having the girl be just above 3 feet tall. Although the synopsis had me at "seedy motel".
Noah the Victorian Punk
Mad Steampunkery
That pick sounds great! I am definitely adding it to my TBR list.
I was reading the summary for the book and thought it sounded like so many I've already read. Then I got to the part about her being a little person and I think my brain popped a bit. Sounds super interesting!
Jen
In the Closet With a Bibliophile

This sounds like a great book! I love the idea and how strange the title is. Oh, and, of course, the cover ;) Great pick!
Sounds like a nice read. The cover is so gorgeous and I really like its title:)
Sounds good :D
this book sounds amazing.
Huh. Is this YA? Sounds good regardless!
This sounds interesting and different. Great pick!
Great linky and great pick! Thanks so much!
Sounds like an interesting choice this week. I'll have to check it out when it comes into the bookstore I work at.
