Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine in which we share a book that we are eagerly anticipating!
Author: Emily Henry
Release date: January 26, 2016
Synopsis from Goodreads:
Natalie Cleary must risk her future and leap blindly into a vast unknown for the chance to build a new world with the boy she loves.
Natalie’s last summer in her small Kentucky hometown is off to a magical start… until she starts seeing the “wrong things.” They’re just momentary glimpses at first—her front door is red instead of its usual green, there’s a pre-school where the garden store should be. But then her whole town disappears for hours, fading away into rolling hills and grazing buffalo, and Nat knows something isn’t right.
That’s when she gets a visit from the kind but mysterious apparition she calls “Grandmother,” who tells her: “You have three months to save him.” The next night, under the stadium lights of the high school football field, she meets a beautiful boy named Beau, and it’s as if time just stops and nothing exists. Nothing, except Natalie and Beau.
Emily Henry’s stunning debut novel is Friday Night Lights meets The Time Traveler’s Wife, and perfectly captures those bittersweet months after high school, when we dream not only of the future, but of all the roads and paths we’ve left untaken.
Why I’m excited: Jeff Zentner called this one a “lightning strike of a book”, which I think is a seriously wonderful way to describe a book. The synopsis for The Love That Split the World sounds absolutely fascinating, doesn’t it? I love books with time travel and tough choices and love. I’m really looking forward to reading this one.
I think I’m going to go insane waiting for this to come out.
Doesn’t it just sound so awesome?!
Yes this. This will be one of my future weds posts. Lol.
YES.
I’m excited for this too and showed it a couple of weeks ago for WoW!
I am so excited for it! I’ve seen a few WoW posts about it – it looks so good!
This looks like a good read.
Doesn’t it sound lovely?
Oh yes!
The cover originally pulled me in and then the synopsis sealed it for me. I can’t wait to read this! Too bad it doesn’t come out until January.
EXACTLY!
