This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
The After Party
By Anton DiSclafani
Publication Date: May 17
From Amazon:
Joan Fortier is the epitome of Texas glamour and the center of the 1950s Houston social scene. Tall, blonde, beautiful, and strong, she dominates the room and the gossip columns. Every man who sees her seems to want her; every woman just wants to be her. But this is a highly ordered world of garden clubs and debutante balls. The money may flow as freely as the oil, but the freedom and power all belong to the men. What happens when a woman of indecorous appetites and desires like Joan wants more? What does it do to her best friend? Devoted to Joan since childhood, Cece Buchanan is either her chaperone or her partner in crime, depending on whom you ask. But as Joan’s radical behavior escalates, Cece’s perspective shifts—forcing one provocative choice to appear the only one there is.

ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy The After Party! The one I was waiting for is out! Stars Above, by Marissa Meyer I just stared the series and loving it. Gotta read a few books before I can get to this new one :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like an interesting book; hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteI really liked her first book, so I am excited for this one!
ReplyDeleteWow this looks fascinating. I added it to my to-read list on goodreads! :D
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a superb book. Love the cover.
ReplyDeleteYep, I'm in on this one. Love, love the cover!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this book, I'll have to check it out! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the cover, but the synopsis doesn't sound like something I'd read. I do hope you will enjoy it though when you have the chance.
ReplyDeleteYour choice sounds like it would be hit or miss for me. It could be done really well, but the synopsis is on the border. I do like reading about the 50's, so I bet I'd give this a shot. :)
ReplyDeleteMy post is over at The Hermit Librarian. Please take a look if you have the time.
This looks like a really interesting book! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI would enjoy the book you have here, that looks good. Hope you get to enjoy it!!
