On My Wish List is a fun weekly event hosted by Workaday Reads and runs every Saturday. It's where we list all the books we desperately want but haven't actually bought yet. They can be old, new or forthcoming.
Synopsis:
A shadowy figure. An intense roar. The sensation of falling—fast.
That’s all Callum Harris remembers from his tumble over the waterfall. But when he wakes up in a hospital bed and finds his best friend trying to kill him, Callum knows something is seriously wrong. Unfortunately for him, the mysteries are just getting started.
Why are his parents acting like he’s some big sports star all of a sudden? And why are all the buildings in town more run-down than Callum remembers? Worst of all...what happened to Callum’s brother? Either Callum has gone seriously crazy or something happened when he went over the falls. Something impossible. Callum needs answers, and now. Because in this twisted new version of the life Callum knew, his former best friend isn’t the only one who wants to see him dead.

First of all, I love that cover. If I walked past it in the bookstore I wouldn't even bother reading the synopsis before buying it. It just screams at me to pick it up. I've come across a few books lately where the main character is facing an alternate reality, but this is the first I've seen from a male's perspective. I like it. Hopefully I'll be able to get my hands on a copy soon because I am anxious to find out why people are trying to kill him and where his brother is!
What is on your wish list this week? Leave me a link and I'll come check it out :)
