"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine.
This is were we get to 'spotlight' books that we are anxiously waiting to be released! The ones that we are dying to get our hands on and read into the wee hours of the night and, quite possibly, to make our shelves look all pretty too :)

Why I'm waiting on TUMBLE & FALL...
This books just sounds way too realistic to me -
I usually stay away from stories that can possibly come true.
Yes, I'm one who tries to live in a small bubble, denial.
BUT, everything about this book just screams read-me-now!
And the cover! One of my faves of this year :)
So, what are you waiting on this week???

This one kinda sounds like the teen version of the movie Melancholia with Kristin Dunst! I really liked that movie, so I might like this one as well!
