The book I´m waiting this week is
The Truth About Alice by Jennifer Mathieu
Release date: June 3rd 2014
Everyone knows Alice slept with two guys at one party. When Healy High star quarterback, Brandon Fitzsimmons, dies in a car crash, it was because he was sexting with Alice. Ask anybody.
Rumor has it Alice Franklin is a slut. It's written all over the "slut stall" in the girls' bathroom: "Alice had sex in exchange for math test answers" and "Alice got an abortion last semester." After Brandon dies, the rumors start to spiral out of control. In this remarkable debut novel, four Healy High students tell all they "know" about Alice--and in doing so reveal their own secrets and motivations, painting a raw look at the realities of teen life. But in this novel from Jennifer Mathieu, exactly what is the truth about Alice? In the end there's only one person to ask: Alice herself.

I read a review copy of this a while ago and really quite liked it!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get a chance to read it soon!
Have a good day!
This one sounds very interesting! I have to keep an eye on it, cause it sounds like one of the few contemporaries I'd like.
ReplyDeleteThis one sounds great, I've heard a lot of buzz about it so I'm hoping it's good!
ReplyDeleteI really, really want to read it, but at the same time I kind of don't because I know It'll probably anger the hell out of me (but then again, I thought Tease would have, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be) so I'll probably read a few chapters before deciding. :)

I've seen this one around a lot. It's not my usual, but I might give it a try.
ReplyDeleteHaven't heard of this book yet. ;)
ReplyDeleteI like the sound of this book. Made me curious on the last two sentence of the blurb.
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling this book is going to have me in tears yet I still want to read it.
ReplyDeleteI just don't know. It sounds like it could either go the really right way, or the really wrong way. I am thinking this is one that I will wait and see about. But I am crazy about the cover. IT is awesome!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds amazing! Exactly the kind of contemporary I love. I hope you like it!
