Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. This meme highlights some of the books whose releases bloggers are most anticipating this year.
The book whose release I am most excited for this week is...
Damage Done
Expected publication: July 21st 2015 by Random House Books for Young Readers
22 minutes separate Julia Vann’s before and after.
Before: Julia had a twin brother, a boyfriend, and a best friend.
After: She has a new identity, a new hometown, and memories of those twenty-two minutes that refuse to come into focus. At least, that’s what she tells the police.
Now that she’s Lucy Black, she's able to begin again. She's even getting used to the empty bedroom where her brother should be. And her fresh start has attracted the attention of one of the hottest guys in school, a boy who will do anything to protect her. But when someone much more dangerous also takes notice, Lucy's forced to confront the dark secrets she thought were safely left behind.
One thing is clear: The damage done can never be erased. It’s only just beginning. . . .
The synopsis of this book had me very intrigued, which means it has done its job. The purpose of a synopsis is to attract readers and capture their interests and this book definitely has me curious as to what happened in those 22 minutes of Julia's life. While this is not a book I am dying to get my hands on, I will definitely pick it up if I see it on the shelf of my local library.
