Waiting on Wednesday (#57)

 "Waiting on" Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases.


 
Expected publication: April 28th 2015 by Farrar, Straus and Giroux (BYR)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A girl takes over her twin sister's identity in this emotionally charged page-turner about the complicated bond between sisters.

Ella and Maddy Lawton are identical twins. Ella has spent her high school years living in popular Maddy's shadows, but she has never been envious of Maddy. In fact, she's chosen the quiet, safe confines of her sketchbook over the constant battle for attention that has defined Maddy's world.

When—after a heated argument—Maddy and Ella get into a tragic accident that leaves her sister dead, Ella wakes up in the hospital surrounded by loved ones who believe she is Maddy. Feeling responsible for Maddy's death and everyone's grief, Ella makes a split-second decision to pretend to be Maddy. Soon, Ella realizes that Maddy's life was full of secrets. Caught in a web of lies, Ella is faced with two options—confess her deception or live her sister's life
 





A twin. Taking over the other twins identity. Need I say more? Yeah, one thing more. WHY 2015, HUH? :(

What're you waiting on?

  17. I'm totally a sucker for premises involving twins and/or mistaken identities, so this one has my name written all over it! Looks like it'll be a lot of fun.

  22. THAAAT COVEEEER. *drools profusely* Okay, I need this in my life like NOW.

    (Possibly also because IT HAS MY NAME IN IT. This is reason enough. Although that Ella doesn't sound like me at all.)
