Waiting On Wednesday (25)

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Title: These Girls
Author: Sarah Pekkanen
Expected Publication Date: April 10, 2012

From Goodreads:


Cate, Renee, and Abby have come to New York for very different reasons, and in a bustling city of millions, they are linked together through circumstance and chance. 

Cate has just been named the features editor of Gloss, a high-end lifestyle magazine. It’s a professional coup, but her new job comes with more complications than Cate ever anticipated. 

Cate’s roommate Renee will do anything to nab the plum job of beauty editor at Gloss. But snide comments about Renee’s weight send her into an emotional tailspin. Soon she is taking black market diet pills—despite the racing heartbeat and trembling hands that signal she's heading for real danger. 

Then there’s Abby, whom they take in as a third roommate. Once a joyful graduate student working as a nanny part time, she abruptly fled a seemingly happy life in the D.C. suburbs. No one knows what shattered Abby—or why she left everything she once loved behind.  


Sigh. Why oh why do I have to wait three more weeks before I can get my hands on this book? Sarah Pekkanen has a life long fan here and I will read anything and everything she ever publishes. I loved her first book, The Opposite of Me, and didn't think there was any way she go up from there. But then she released Skipping A Beat and blew me away. Seriously people, that book is heart breakingly amazing. So here I am counting down the days until I can finally read These Girls. I need it now!!!
