On My Wish List (54)



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.




Title: Broken Soup
Author: Jenny Valentine
Publication Date: March 24, 2009
From Goodreads:
Positive.

Negative.

It's how you look at it. . . .

Someone shoves a photo negative into Rowan's hands. She is distracted but, frankly, she has larger problems to worry about. Her brother is dead. Her father has left. Her mother won't get out of bed. She has to take care of her younger sister. And keep it all together . . .

But Rowan is curious about the mysterious boy and the negative. Who is he? Why did he give it to her? The mystery only deepens when the photo is developed and the inconceivable appears.

Everything is about to change for Rowan. . . . Finally, something positive is in her life.


This has been on my wish list forever. I came across the cover while cruising Swap.com and it immediately got my attention. It's a little plain, but I like it. I always seem to forget about this book though, which is why it stays on my list for so long. I find it so hard to keep older releases in mu sights when so many amazing looking books keep coming out each week. I think I'll add this to my birthday book list :)


What's on your wish list this week? Leave me a link in the comments and I'll come check it out!
