"Waiting on" Wednesday: The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
 
Here is my pick of the week!
 
The Unbecoming of Mara DyerTitle: The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer
Author: Michelle Hodkin
Release Date: 27 Sep. 2011
Publisher: Simon and Schuster Children's Publishing
Pages: 464
 
Synopsis taken from Goodreads:
Mara Dyer doesn't think life can get any stranger than waking up in a hospital with no memory of how she got there.
 
It can.

She believes there must be more to the accident she can't remember that killed her friends and left her mysteriously unharmed.

There is.

She doesn't believe that after everything she's been through, she can fall in love.

She's wrong.

I know everyone wants to read this book, but I really want to read this book! It starts with the amazing cover, then the synopsis, and, finally, what everyone has been saying about the book. I want it so badly. The wait to get it is killing me.

What's your pick of the week? Leave a link and I'll check it out!
