Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly book event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine and spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
I was updating my Book Depository wishlist page when I stumbled upon My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century, the debut novel of YA author Rachel Harris. I am a cover whore and I have to admit that the cover was what initially attracted me to look at this new book.
Title: My Super Sweet Sixteenth CenturyAuthor: Rachel Harris
Publication Date: September 11th 2012
Publisher: Entangled Publishing
Pre-Order: Book Depository | Amazon
Summary (from Goodreads):
On the precipice of her sixteenth birthday, the last thing lone wolf Cat Crawford wants is an extravagant gala thrown by her bubbly stepmother and well-meaning father. So even though Cat knows the family’s trip to Florence, Italy, is a peace offering, she embraces the magical city and all it offers. But when her curiosity leads her to an unusual gypsy tent, she exits . . . right into Renaissance Firenze.
Thrust into the sixteenth century armed with only a backpack full of contraband future items, Cat joins up with her ancestors, the sweet Alessandra and protective Cipriano, and soon falls for the gorgeous aspiring artist Lorenzo. But when the much-older Niccolo starts sniffing around, Cat realizes that an unwanted birthday party is nothing compared to an unwanted suitor full of creeptastic amore.
Can she find her way back to modern times before her Italian adventure turns into an Italian forever?
So what are you patiently waiting for this week?
I absolutely cannot wait for this book!
