Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we are eagerly anticipating.
This week I’m waiting on………….

Author: Various
Publisher: St. Martin’s Griffin
Genres: Young-Adult, Contemporary, Romance, Anthology, Short Stories

Maybe it’s the long, lazy days, or maybe it’s the heat making everyone a little bit crazy. Whatever the reason, summer is the perfect time for love to bloom. Summer Days & Summer Nights: Twelve Love Stories, written by twelve bestselling young adult writers and edited by the international bestselling author Stephanie Perkins, will have you dreaming of sunset strolls by the lake. So set out your beach chair and grab your sunglasses. You have twelve reasons this summer to soak up the sun and fall in love.

Why am I waiting on this? After devouring My True Love Gave To Me: Twelve Holiday Stories, I have no doubt that this one will be just as great. Plus, I love anthologies. And some of my favorite authors are contributing. What book(s) are you waiting on this week?
Twins! YES! I am definitely looking forward to this one 🙂
