Waiting On Wednesday (43)

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


Title: White Lines
Author: Jennifer Banash
Expected Publication Date: April 4, 2013

From Goodreads:


Seventeen-year-old Cat is living every teenager’s dream—she has her own apartment on New York’s Lower East Side and at night she’s club kid royalty, guarding the velvet rope at some of the hottest clubs in the city. The night with its crazy, frenetic, high-inducing energy—the pulsing beat of the music, the radiant, joyful people and those seductive white lines that can ease all pain—is when Cat truly lives. But her daytime, when her real life occurs, is more nightmare than dream.

The sounds of the city grate against Cat’s nerves, she shrinks away from human touch, and can barely think the words “I love you” even when she feels them. Having spent years suffering her mother’s emotional and physical abuse, and abandoned by her father who’s found happiness in another woman, Cat is terrified and alone—unable to connect to anyone or anything. But then someone comes along who makes her want to stop escaping her life and actually live it, only she’ll need to summon the courage to confront her demons and take control of a life already spinning dangerously out of control. Both poignant and raw, White Lines is a gripping tale and the reader won’t want to look away.


No shocker here that I am dying to get my hands on this one. I seem to be constantly pulled in the direction of family drama and no matter how many I read, I just can't get enough. White Lines sounds like the perfect read for me and I am totally lovin' that cover! Love the shock of purple over the grey. I've been entering every single giveaway possible for this one but so far no win. I'm gonna keep trying though!

What are you waiting for this week? Leave me a link in the comments and I'll come check it out!
