"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:
150 Pounds
Publication Date: January 17
From the publisher:
A smartly written novel of two women starting at opposite ends of the scale—and finding compromise and friendship in their journey towards 150 pounds. In the fast-paced life of blogging, two women stand out: Alexis Allbright, of Skinny Chick, and Shoshana Weiner, who writes Fat and Fabulous. Both have over five million loyal readers. Both are hungry for success. But the similarities stop there. When both appear as panelists on a popular talk show, their lives intersect in ways neither could have imagined.
What's your "waiting on" pick this week?

Jill, we each selected a book with "weight issues" for one of the characters...LOL
This looks promising! And I love the cover. Will definitely look for this one next year.
This sounds SO good! I'm really into reading health/fitness/weight loss blogs right now, so it will be interesting to see that world play out in a novel. Great pick!

thank you for stopping by my blog and having me as a part of your hop!
Interesting pick :)
I think that sounds like a really good book. I like the cover art. Weight loss is such a huge issue that it is nice to have books about it by real women.
