"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
I admit. The cover made me feature Love Fortunes and Other Disasters by Kimberly Karalius. I don't even care if I don't like it. I just want to read it. Though, it does sound cute, if a little bit cheesy, but I hope I'll like it.
Love Fortunes and Other Disasters by Kimberly KaraliusExpected publication: May 12th 2015 by Swoon Reads
Goodreads | Book Depository | Amazon
In the tradition of Alice Hoffman’s Practical Magic, one girl chooses to change her fortune and her fate by falling in love.
Love is real in the town of Grimbaud and Fallon Dupree has dreamed of attending high school there for years. After all, generations of Duprees have successfully followed the (100% accurate!) love fortunes from Zita’s famous Love Charms Shop to happily marry their high school sweethearts. It’s a tradition. So she is both stunned and devastated when her fortune states that she will NEVER find love.
Fortunately, Fallon isn’t the only student with a terrible love fortune, and a rebellion is brewing. Fallon is determined to take control of her own fate—even if it means working with a notorious heartbreaker like Sebastian.
Will Fallon and Sebastian be able to overthrow Zita’s tyranny and fall in love?

This seriously has the cutest cover ever! The story sounds really cute too so can't wait~
ReplyDeleteI have heard so many good things about both World After and The Mara Dyer series. I have the first Mara Dyer book on my kindle, but I haven't gotten around to reading it.
ReplyDeleteI have definitely fallen for this cover! I honestly don't even care what it is about or if I ever read it. I just want to own it, and put it on a shelf somewhere and look at it all day. I mean, come on, that is too cute! I agree that the synopsis sounds cute but a bit cheesy. Like I said, it doesn't even matter, I want this book. Great choice!
ReplyDeleteOoh, Unbecoming of Mara Dyer! That's definitely a great pick for a readathon; I couldn't put it down! And I've heard great things about Ee's books.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading!
Yeah me too :) I really like how it makes me read a lot of books, but also connecting with new bloggers and readers is amazing! x
ReplyDeleteI am just about to start with Altered, and I have to say, I'm really excited about it! I wasn't as amazed with Matched, but it was okay I guess.
ReplyDeleteI'm almost done with World After, and it's pretty good so far. I have yet to get around to read Mara Dyer, but I do hope it'll be great! x
ReplyDeleteYeah, the Angelfall series is pretty much awesome. I have yet to get to Mara, but I'm definitely excited to read it!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I guess it does sound original in a way, but I don't mind it. I'm in love with the cover, lol
ReplyDeleteI know, right? I just want to own it, read it, whatever... lol
