Waiting on Wednesday: 13 to Life by Shannon Delany


Something strange is stalking the small town of Junction…

When junior Jess Gillmansen gets called out of class by Guidance, she can only presume it’s for one of two reasons. Either they’ve finally figured out who wrote the scathing anti-jock editorial in the school newspaper or they’re hosting yet another intervention for her about her mom. Although far from expecting it, she’s relieved to discover Guidance just wants her to show a new student around—but he comes with issues of his own including a police escort.

The newest member of Junction High, Pietr Rusakova has secrets to hide--secrets that will bring big trouble to the small town of Junction—secrets including dramatic changes he’s undergoing that will surely end his life early.

(I can't wait to read this book - I love the cover and synopsis! )

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event spotlighting upcoming releases we are highly anticipating. It is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.

Thank you so much for WoW-ing 13 to Life. :) I'm so glad so many people are excited to see it hit shelves in June (and that everyone seems to really like the cover designer Ervin Serrano did--I <3 it).

Thanks again!
