Waiting on Wednesday...PRETTY AMY!

The lovely Jill (a fellow Alabamian!) over at Breaking the Spine created the Waiting on Wednesday meme for us bloggers to showcase books we're waiting on. 


This week's selection is a YA contemporary that I cannot WAIT to read! I love the cover, and the synopsis only makes it better. I've chatted a bit with the author via Twitter, and she's super sweet. And I know that her book is going to be a hit! So please, rush over to Goodreads and add to your TBR lists...

PRETTY AMY

product description from goodreads.com

Amy is fine living in the shadows of beautiful Lila and uber-cool Cassie, because at least she’s somewhat beautiful and uber-cool by association. But when their dates stand them up for prom, and the girls take matters into their own hands—earning them a night in jail outfitted in satin, stilettos, and Spanx—Amy discovers even a prom spent in handcuffs might be better than the humiliating “rehabilitation techniques” now filling up her summer. Worse, with Lila and Cassie parentally banned, Amy feels like she has nothing—like she is nothing.

Navigating unlikely alliances with her new coworker, two very different boys, and possibly even her parents, Amy struggles to decide if it’s worth being a best friend when it makes you a public enemy. Bringing readers along on an often hilarious and heartwarming journey, Amy finds that maybe getting a life only happens once you think your life is over.

Doesn't that sound great? I'm so excited for May 15th!
