"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Nobody But Us by Kristin Halbrook
Publication Date: January 29 2013
Goodreads Summary-
Bonnie and Clyde meets Simone Elkeles in this addictively heart-wrenching story of two desperate teenagers on the run from their pasts.
They’re young. They’re in love. They’re on the run.
Zoe wants to save Will as much as Will wants to save Zoe. When Will turns eighteen, they decide to run away together. But they never expected their escape to be so fraught with danger....
When the whole world is after you, sometimes it seems like you can’t run fast enough.
Nobody But Us, told in alternating perspectives from Will and Zoe, is an unflinching novel, in turns heartbreaking and hopeful, about survival, choices, and love...and how having love doesn’t always mean that you get a happy ending. Described as “beautiful, heartbreaking, and exhilarating” by Kody Keplinger, author of The DUFF, Nobody But Us will prove irresistible to fans of Nina Lacour, Jenny Han, and Sara Zarr.
This one just sounds so amazing and different. Hopefully it'll be as good as it looks.
What are you waiting on?

This sounds intense. I love it! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love that the blurb says it's a little Bonnie and Clyde-ish - the maybe-no-happy-ending scares me. lol I know I'll still want it though, I'm definitely in a contemporary mood lately. Great pick!
