WOW #19



I'm waiting on

Speechless

Speechless by Hannah Harrington 
Expected Release Date August 28th 2012


The story of a girl named Chelsea Knot who takes a voluntary oath of silence after her gossip-mongering ways yield unexpected consequences…

Why I'm Waiting?
I loved Saving June by this author! It was so good. One of the few realistic fiction books I have ever read where I really felt very connected to the main character and understood her. I can't wait to read more from this author. The description is short but it's enough to know this will be a very emotional and powerful book. The cover is simple but fits. It's supposed to be shiny and pretty in person. Really curious as to what consequence her gossip caused and how the book will be handled since Chelsea will be silent for most of it.

    I think I saw this for the first time today, um, well last night, while I was making my post. I think it's definitely intriguing. I haven't read Saving June yet, but I have heard about it. Thanks for sharing!

    OH I LOVE THAT BLURB! It's sounds so epic already! Saving June is on my wishlist. I've heard nothing but good things about that book and since your Wow and that book is from the same author, I sooo added this on GR! I'm curious for this one as well! I'll be waiting with you :) Great Wow pick, Jenn!

    At first I thought that was the cover holder :$ Hehe. And while I haven't actually read any of her previous novels (don't kill me!), I'm super excited for this one!

    Great pick! I'm so curious about this one. I went to school w/a girl who refused to speak. I never found out why. Made for interesting showdowns when teachers called on her. She never gave in. Thanks for sharing!

    I still haven't read Saving June yet -- can you believe it?? x) But you just reminded me that I should definitely try to do that soon! And I adooooooore the sound of this one too! The cover may be simple, but it definitely fits the "simple and pretty" label you gave it :) It kind of stands out by not standing out, you know? I LOVE IT <3

    Amazing pick for your WOW this week, Jen! I can't wait to read this one now too! :)

    Honestly, the cover does not catch my eye at all. However the synopsis does. I'll be curious to see what people think of it.

    This is such an odd book. Plain cover, that somehow manages to catch your eye because of it. A blurb that is one sentence long but it seems to work better than a long one. I love it!
