Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking The Spine where bloggers talk about books they're excited to read.
This week I am excited for a book called One Hot Second: Stories About Desire
Summary
"Anything can happen in one hot second. Secret crushes. Awkward dates. First love. First times.
"In this powerful collection, eleven acclaimed writers for teens capture the various expressions of desire, from first crushes to first times and all of the charged emotions in between. Here, a sleek new teammate becomes more than a friend; a hopeful date feels his evening unravel; a pale boy delivers a sweet but terrible kiss; a wise girl discovers the real rules about love; one relationship ends and another begins.
"Jennifer Armstrong, Sarah Dessen, Emma Donoghue, Nancy Garden, Angela Johnson, Victor Martinez, Norma Fox Mazer, Rachel Vail, Rich Wallace, Ellen Wittlinger, and Jacqueline Woodson have crafted original stories that are as complex and provocative as desire itself."
I know this book is already out but I am still WAITING for it from the library!
