Waiting on Wednesday (5)
Here Lies BridgetPages: 208
Publisher: Harlequin
Publish Date: 1st February 2011
Buy the Book: Amazon
Spoiled and selfish Bridget Duke, the daughter of a local celebrity, thinks that the whole world has turned against her. In a fit of self-pity, she crashes her car. But instead of a bright light and heaven, she finds herself in what looks like a boardroom. It’s a strange sort of limbo where she is to be judged for her actions in life by the people she’s wronged. Forced to step into the shoes of others, Bridget finally gets to see the effects her actions have had on the people around her. But will she be able to do anything about the past, especially if her apologies fall on deaf ears?
This book looks like a mix between a good old highschool drama and The Lovely Bones! I can't wait to read it.
What are you waiting for?

ReplyDeleteI've read mixed reviews of this one as well, but it still sounds interesting and the cover is all pretty and sweet but also very creepy once you focus on the toe tag:) Nice pick!

ReplyDeleteHow to Knit a Heart Back Home
ReplyDeleteBy Rachael Herron
Publication date: March 1, 2011
Lucy Harrison sells books by day and volunteers with the Cypress Hollow fire department by night. Her life is just the way she likes it—full, even-keeled, and smooth—until bad-boy ex-cop Owen Bancroft comes back to town. Lucy has always been fearless, never scared about diving in to help others. When it comes to risking her heart, however, she realizes she's absolutely terrified.
In a small town like Cypress Hollow, everyone knows your business—and there is nowhere to hide. Then Lucy and Owen are thrown together by the discovery of the lost work of local legend, knitting guru Eliza Carpenter. Now Owen, adrift and struggling to redefine himself as a civilian without a badge, will have to learn how to open himself up to life's new possibilities . . . while Lucy decides just how much of herself she's willing to gamble on love.
Looks like a good read, but I am a bit worried about the few pages it has...usually I tend to dislike books with < 300 pages. I saw it on netgalley, have you checked it out there?
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting and Happy Holidays:)
I recently added this book to my list. I sounds similar to Before I Fall, hope its just as good. Great choice! Thanks for stopping by Page Turners.
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good! I can't wait to get my hands on!!

This one sounds like fun! I have read a couple of mixed reviews, so hope you enjoy it! It's on Netgalley if you want to grab it!
ReplyDeleteOMG! You are Team Stefan! Me too!! (I am also Team Jeremy BIG TIME!). It's good to meet another Stefan fan. The whole world seems to be Team Damon!
I like the sound of this one-- I like books with skewed, creative afterlifes. This sounds kind of like a Christmas Carol meets the Lovely Bones. :)
ReplyDeleteNew follower here, by the way. Thanks for stopping by my blog. :)
I haven't heard much about this one, but the cover is quite striking!
ReplyDeleteI notice more YA books are stretching themselves in the hope of being unique and different. I've got to give this one some thought. Thanks for filling me in about it and for stopping by earlier!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to grab this one from NetGalley.com and read it for the 2011 Young Adult Authors Debut Challenge.
ReplyDeleteOH this sounds so so good, added it hoping its as good as it sounds.
ReplyDeleteMy WOW
This cover reminds me so much of Pushing Daisies! Thanks for stopping by my blog :)
ReplyDeleteI picked this up from NetGalley and I'm excited to read it.
ReplyDeleteOoh, I'm excited about this one, too. Great pick!
ReplyDeleteI've seen this cover around, but I never read the synopsis until now. Looks so good! Great pick!
ReplyDeleteI have not seen this one before. I am going to have to add it to my tbr list. Great pick!
ReplyDeleteI'm really excited to read this one as well! It does sound like The Lovely Bones -- and maybe The 5 People You Meet in Heaven. Great pick!
