Waiting On Wednesday: Week 15

My pick this week is:


Broken Soup by Jenny Valentine

Summary:


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.Award-winning author Jenny Valentine delivers a powerful and life-affirming story of grief, friendship, and healing that will resonate long after the last page.


My Thoughts/ Why I Want This:
  • I want to know how her brother died.
  • What's in the photograph.
  • Who the mysterious boy and why he gave her said photo.
  • Plus, I love the cover. Since, it's simple while still being pretty.
  • Oh, and it got a great reviews here and here.
Broken Soup will be released March 24, 2009. Anyway, what book are you dying to read this week?
