Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by
Jill from
Breaking the Spine, and specifically spotlights upcoming novels we can't wait to read. As always, there are some amazing upcoming books, but this week I'm particularly excited for...
Title: Dead Rules
Author: Randy Russell
Release Date: July 1, 2011
Publisher: HarperTeen
Sometimes falling in love means you've got to kill somebody. Jana Webster and Michael Haynes were destined to be together forever. Of that, Jana was sure. But Jana just died—in a bowling accident. And now she’s trapped in Dead School. Jana is certain that it won’t be long before Michael kills himself in order to spend eternity with her—but the days are passing and Michael is, inexplicably, still alive. So Jana decides to take matters into her own hands. And nothing—not even Dead School bad boy Mars Dreamcote’s enticingly warm touch or the devastating secret he holds about her death—will stop her from making her dreams come true.
Taken from Goodreads.I saw the cover for
Dead Rules, and I was sold in a heartbeat. I'm not afraid to admit that I judge books by their covers more often than not, but
Dead Rules has a really enticing premise, too. I like the whole afterlife context and the idea of a selfish MC that's almost narcissistic enough to think her boyfriend would die to continue being with her. I sense some wicked dark humour in this story, and it makes me giddy with glee! What do you think...and what are you waiting on this week?
