Did you notice that I have two consecutive posts about two Noras? Now this is another post about another Kristin. How about that?
Anyway, this is my first Waiting on Wednesday post! “Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill of Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating. My WoW entry for this week is:
Perfectly Dateless by Kristin Billerbeck
Daisy Crispin has 242 days to find the right date for the prom. There’s only one problem–her parents won’t let her date or even talk to a guy on the phone. Oh, and she’s totally invisible at school, has to wear lame homemade clothes, and has no social skills. Okay, so maybe there’s more than one problem. Can she talk her parents into letting her go to the prom? Or will they succeed at their obvious attempt to completely ruin her life? With hilarious and truthful writing, Kristin Billerbeck uncovers the small–and large–mortifications that teen girls encounter. Readers will fall in love with Daisy’s sharp wit and resourcefulness as she navigates the world of boys, fashion, family, and friendship.
Kristin Billerbeck is one of my favorite Christian chick-lit authors — God knows how much I loved her Ashley Stockingdale series. :P I saw this book while I was doing my Amazon shopping over the weekend (more to that on a later post, when my books get here), and I thought it was already released, but alas. I have to wait until July 1. I hope my dad comes home around that time too, so I can have this ordered. :D
Welcome to WoW! So glad you’re participating! Be sure to go back to my blog and leave your link on this week’s post so that everyone visiting today can see your pick…
THis book sounds cute. I havent read a chicklit in a while and this one looks fun.
Thanks for picking it out.
I like Kristin Billerbeck too. I didn’t realize she had a new YA book coming out. Thanks for sharing about it. Here is my WoW pick.
