"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:
Sweet Tooth
By Ian McEwan
Publication Date: November 13
From Amazon:
Cambridge student Serena Frome’s beauty and intelligence make her the
ideal recruit for MI5. The year is 1972. The Cold War is far from
over. England’s legendary intelligence agency is determined to
manipulate the cultural conversation by funding writers whose politics
align with those of the government. The operation is code named “Sweet
Tooth.”
Serena, a compulsive reader of novels, is the perfect
candidate to infiltrate the literary circle of a promising young writer
named Tom Haley. At first, she loves his stories. Then she begins to
love the man. How long can she conceal her undercover life? To answer
that question, Serena must abandon the first rule of espionage: trust
no one.

Loving the synopsis for Sweet tooth.It's like a romance/mystery.I'm now waiting on this also!

I feel a bit guilty admitting this, but I've never read McEwan. Perhaps this will be the book to cure me of that affliction! Sounds good.
Love the cover and title! Nice pick! =D

My latest post: "Waiting On" Wednesday
I'll wait to see what you make of it, I find that with McEwan that I either love or loathe his novels. He's probably the only author who affects me in this way. Makes it difficult because I'm tempted to avoid his books altogether, and then I'm reminded of the ones I did like.
Never heard of this book, but it sounds like something I'd really enjoy! Thanks for sharing :)

What's Hot?
I hadn't heard of this one so thanks so much for mentioning it --sounds good.
This one looks really interesting. I haven't ever read anything by McEwan before, either.
I'm not a huge Ian McEwan fan, so I'm on the fence about this one.
This sounds interesting.
That sounds pretty good. :)
Mine is Destroy Me. The Novella between Shatter Me & Unravel Me :)
Sweet Tooth sounds like a book I would like. Thanks for choosing it.
Oh, I love McEwan's books and this one sounds fabulous!
