-Waiting On Wednesday [4]: Getting Revenge On Lauren Wood

Waiting On Wednesday originated from Jill (Breaking The Spine.)

I haven't done a WoW in forever!

I just found out about this book on YALit.com

Getting Revenge on Lauren Wood by Eileen Cook

Release date: 1/5/10

Summary from Amazon.com:

In the final weeks of eighth grade, Lauren Wood made a choice. She betrayed her best friend, Helen, in a manner so publicly humiliating that Helen had to move to a new town just to save face. Ditching Helen was worth it, though, because Lauren started high school as one of the It Girls--and now, at the start of her senior year, she's the cheerleading captain, the quarterback's girlfriend, and the undisputed queen bee. Lauren has everything she's ever wanted, and she has forgotten all about her ex-best friend.

But Helen could never forget Lauren. After three years of obsessing, she's moving back to her old town. She has a new name and a new look, but she hasn't dropped her old grudges. She has a detailed plan to bring down her former BFF by taking away everything that's ever been important to Lauren—starting with her boyfriend.

Watch out, Lauren Wood. Things are about to get bitchy.

I don't too much care for the title, it's not very creative...but the plot looks pretty snazzy huh? I like the colors and font on the cover, but it kind of resembles the Pretty Little Liars cover, with the yellow, the swirly font, + the doll. What do you think?

Leave me your Waiting On Wednesday link so I can add some of your choices to my TBR too!

This week I'm waiting on...

Perfect Mistake (Privilege novel #3) by Kate Brian

Release date: October 27, 2009

.

Kate Brian's Beautiful Disaster brings Ariana Osgood back into the life she is accustomed to, the only questions is, what will she do to hold onto it? -barnesandnoble.com

.

Unfortunately that was the only kind of summary I was able to find on the internet. I started the Privilege series without realizing it was connected to the Private series, so now I'm trying to read Private and catch up. I loved Privilege and Beautiful Disaster & I'm enjoying Private so far...I absolutely cannot wait for this book. I couldn't put the first two down.

Bleeding Violet by Dia Reeves

Love can be a dangerous thing...

Hanna simply wants to be loved. With a head plagued by hallucinations, a medicine cabinet full of pills, and a closet stuffed with frilly, violet dresses, Hanna's tired of being the outcast, the weird girl, the freak. So she runs away to Portero, Texas in search of a new home.

.

But Portero is a stranger town than Hanna expects. As she tries to make a place for herself, she discovers dark secrets that would terrify any normal soul. Good thing for Hanna, she's far from normal. As this crazy girl meets an even crazier town, only two things are certain: Anything can happen and no one is safe. -amazon.com

The Mark by Jen Nadol

Release date: January 19, 2010

.

Sixteen-year old Cassie Renfield has seen the mark since forever: a glow around certain people as if a candle were held behind their back.

.

The one time she pointed it out taught her she shouldn't do it again, so Cassie has kept quiet, considering its rare appearances odd, but insignificant. Until she watches a man die. Mining her memories, Cassie realizes she can see a person's imminent death. Now how or where, only when: today.

.

Cassie searches her past, her philosophy lessons, even her new boyfriend for answers, always careful to keep her secret. How does the mark work? Why her? Most importantly, if you know today is someone's last, should you tell? -goodreads.com

.

This one looks really good.
