"Waiting On" Wednesday: The Castaways


This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:


The Castaways
By Elin Hilderbrand
Publication Date: July 1

From Amazon:

"Greg and Tess MacAvoy are one of four prominent Nantucket couples who count each other as best friends. As pillars of their close-knit community, the MacAvoys, Kapenashes, Drakes, and Wheelers are important to their friends and neighbors, and especially to each other. But just before the beginning of another idyllic summer, Greg and Tess are killed when their boat capsizes during an anniversary sail. As the warm weather approaches and the island mourns their loss, nothing can prepare the MacAvoy's closest friends for what will be revealed. Once again, Hilderbrand masterfully weaves an intense tale of love and loyalty set against the backdrop of endless summer island life."

What's your "waiting on" pick this week?

    The Castaways sounds like a really riveting read! I don't know if I can wait until July - I'm still trying to be patient for April!

    My pick is here, complete with a joke at the end :)
