"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:
Here I Go Again
By Jen Lancaster
Publication Date: December 31
From author's Facebook page:
Twenty years after ruling the halls of her
suburban Chicago high school, Lissy Ryder doesn't understand why her
glory days ended. Back then she was worshiped...beloved...feared.
Present day, not so much. She's been pink-slipped from her high-paying
job, dumped by her husband, and kicked out of her condo. Now, at 37, she's struggling to start a business out of her parents'
garage and sleeping under the hair-band posters in her old bedroom. Lissy finally realizes karma is the only bitch bigger than she was. Her
present is miserable because of her past. But it's not like she can go
back in time and change who she was...or can she?

So, I saw "Chicago" and immediately went oooooh. I don't usually read contemporary chick lit or its like, but I really don't have a good reason for that other than that I love YA and only have so much reading time. But this sounds cute, and I might have to pick it up.

This sounds interesting! I'll have to keep an eye out for it when it's released.
ReplyDeleteI love time traveling stories! It's always fun to read about the paradoxies and the whole modern meets past is so fun to imagine. Stories set in the 70s-90s are super interesting since my parents were my age during those times. That's why I love seeing old family photos.

This sounds really cool! Plus it takes place in Chicago. Will need to add this to my tr list.
ReplyDeleteHere's Mine

ReplyDeleteWorking with children's books, my life gets sucked into children's books (not that that's too big of a problem, I love them!), but I'd "break away" to give this one a try.

I can't believe she has another book coming out already! I liked her first fiction title, and enjoy her memoirs as well, so this one is going on my list.
