"Waiting On" Wednesday #2: Off the Page by Jodi Picoult and Samantha van Leer





"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. Since she's invited anyone to join in, let me share with you a book I found out about this week and immediately wanted to pre-order. If only I wasn't a broke stay-at-home mom!

"From #1 New York Times bestselling authors Jodi Picoult and her daughter and coauthor, Samantha van Leer, comes OFF THE PAGE, a tender and appealing romantic YA novel filled with humor, adventure, and magical relationships. 
 Meet Oliver, a prince literally taken from the pages of a fairy tale and transported into the real world. Meet Delilah, the girl who wished Oliver into being. It’s a miracle that seems perfect at first—but there are complications. To exist in Delilah’s world, Oliver must take the place of a regular boy. Enter Edgar, who agrees to play Oliver’s role in the pages of Delilah’s favorite book. But just when it seems that the plan will work, everything gets turned upside down. 
Full of humor and witty commentary about life, OFF THE PAGE is a stand-alone novel as well as the companion to the authors’ bestseller Between the Lines, and is perfect for readers looking for a fairytale ending. Fans of Sarah Dessen and Meg Cabot are sure to appreciate this novel about love, romance, and relationships."

I feel like lately I've only been reading books by authors I already like, so I've been making an effort to discover "new" authors. Still, it's always nice to have reference authors to compare to, like in the above description. As a teenager I was a HUGE fan of both Sarah Dessen and Meg Cabot, so I'm interested in this book as a sort of throwback to my younger days. It sounds funny and imaginative. And the good news is it comes out next month!

What book are you waiting on?
