This week's Waiting on Wednesday pick is...
Publisher: Delacorte Books for Young Readers
Release Date: June 12, 2012
Pages: 320
Summary: Four girls. One magical, and possibly dangerous Italian summer. Family mysteries, ancient castles, long hot nights of dancing under the stars . . . and, of course, plenty of gorgeous Italian boys!
Why I'm Waiting!
I wish I had more of a summary description for this one, but it still sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun! This summer, I am hunting down as many fun, light-hearted YA contemporary books as possible. I've decided that I want this summer's reading and blogging to be full of cute, romantic reads instead of dark paranormals and dystopians (even though I'm sure there will be some of those thrown into the mix as well :) and this one sounds absolutely perfect! What do you guys think??
This one does look interesting. I've seen it on Gooodreads and I think I might give it a try when it's released. Thanks for sharing!! :)

Ooh, I'm with you on the lighthearted YA binge this summer. Last year I tried to get through the classics and after reading "To Kill a Mockingbird" and "Pride and Prejudice" I discovered that- as much as I love them- they are to be toted to the beach. Looking forward to this one!

I'll be reading this in a month or so AND I CAN'T WAIT. For some reason, it reminds me of Anna and the French Kiss. The cover is very well-done, cute, and love stories set in Italy?? OH YEAH, this book is for me, bro.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a fantastic summer beach read. I am really looking forward to reading it. The fact that it takes place in Italy makes it even more awesome. Great choice!
ReplyDeleteHaven't heard of that one!

This sounds like a great summer read! Definitely something to read outside in the sunshine =) Excellent pick!

I don't typically read a lot of contemporary, but this one really does look sweet and fun; I think it's the travel part than made it extra interesting to me. Plus, it is sometimes nice to read a book where you know the result and just want to enjoy the journey!

I love the sound of Flirting in Italian. I should really read it! :>

I have this on my TBR/Wish list as well! Great pick. =) I've only read Two-Way Street by Lauren, and that was really good. So this will be amazing as well!
ReplyDeleteThis one looks so cute. I love anything that makes me want to become a globe-trotter, and this sounds like just the thing!
