"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine,
that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Title: Reaper
Author: L.S. Murphy
Language: English
Publisher: J. Taylor Publishing
Expected Publication: January 7, 2013
Summary:
There's no way sixteen year old Quincy Amarante will become the fifth grim reaper. None. Not over her shiny blue Mustang. Her Jimmy Choos. Or her dead body.
She’s supposed to enjoy her sophomore year, not learn about some freaky future Destiny says she has no choice but to fulfill.
It doesn’t take long for Quincy to realize the only way out of the game is to play along especially since Death can find her anyway, anywhere, anytime. And does.
Like when she’s reassuring her friends she wants nothing to do with former best friend Ben Moorland, who’s returned from god-knows-where, and fails. Miserably.
Instead of maintaining her coveted popularity status, Quincy’s goes down like the Titanic.
Maybe ... just maybe ... that’s okay.
It seems, perhaps, becoming a grim reaper isn’t just about the dead but more about a much needed shift in Quincy’s priorities—from who she thinks she wants to be to who she really is.
Why I am looking forward to this: The style of the summary is fun, I hope the book is written in this tone as well. I think the story will be pretty hilarious, yet valuable. And the cover is cute as well. The whole looking at it and waiting already has me grinning. x)
Looks so cute! I also featured this awhile ago and won a copy! Hope to start it soon!
