Waiting on Wednesday #30


 "Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

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


Summary
 
When Mallory discovers that her boyfriend, Jeremy, is cheating on her with an online girlfriend, she swears off boys. She also swears off modern technology. Inspired by a list of goals her grandmother made in 1962, Mallory decides to "go vintage" and return to a simpler time (when boyfriends couldn't cheat on you online). She sets out to complete grandma's list: run for pep club secretary, host a dinner party, sew a homecoming dress, find a steady, do something dangerous. But the list is trickier than it looks. And obviously finding a steady is out . . . no matter how good Oliver (Jeremy's cousin) smells. But with the help of her sister, she'll get it done. Somehow. Lindsey Leavitt perfectly pairs heartfelt family moments, laugh-out-loud humor, and a little bit of romance in this delightful contemporary novel.


320 pages
Expected publication: March 26th 2013 by Bloomsbury

    I'm not sure if I could do that. I'm too hooked to my computer, so it should be fun to see how it goes :) Great pick!

    Ohh yes!!! I added this one to my Goodreads shelf months ago and kind of forgot about it. Now I'm all excited to read it again!

    I have this one on my to-read list, I think. I've definitely seen it before but I'll wait to read some reviews before I decide if I'll read it or not. Nice pick!
