- “Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.
This week I’m waiting on…
Sublime by Christina Lauren
a standalone, I think
to be published on October 14th 2014 by Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers
paranormal | romance | ghosts
When Lucy wakes up in a frozen forest, she isn’t sure why she’s there, until she sees Colin.
Colin has captivated half the girls at Saint Osanna’s, but no one has ever snared his fascination the way Lucy does. Even as Lucy begins to remember the details of her life–and her death–neither of them is willing to give up what they have, no matter how impossible it seems.
An adrenaline junkie, Colin begins taking himself to the brink of death, where their realities overlap–and discovers that he can physically be with Lucy. But maybe some lines shouldn’t be crossed.
1. I cannot stop raving about how gorgeous and beautiful the concept of the cover is. I love how the guy’s sort of turning into a ghost as he reaches for the girl… Gah! It’s just absolutely gorgeous.
2. I don’t read enough ghost stories and really want to! I am a huge fan of creepy stories, and what can be creepier than ghosts, right?
3. I haven’t read from this author yet and would like to start with this one. Christina Lauren’s books have an average rating of 4.16 stars with 119,809 ratings (based on Goodreads, 3/18). Yep, I should definitely read one of her books.
What are you waiting on this week?
The cover is simply gorgeous! I’ll wait until you read this to figure out if I’ll read this or not. :D

“I love how the guy’s sort of turning into a ghost as he reaches for the girl… Gah! It’s just absolutely gorgeous.” <- Agree! But see, I didn't even see that until the cover discussion. I haven't read any of her books either, so this will be the first and *hopefully* will be a good thing. I SO want it to be as amazing as the cover is, because it definitely sounds like it. But the wait. ;( Thanks for stopping by mine earlier! :)
