This week, I'm waiting on:
After You by Jojo Moyes
Release date: September 29, 2015
There isn't an official description of the book yet but it is a sequel to Me Before You, which I loved.
Sophomore Year is Greek to Me by Meredith Zeitlin
Release date: April 21, 2015
A laugh-out-loud high school adventure set in Greece, perfect for fans of Meg Cabot
High school sophomore Zona Lowell has lived in New York City her whole life, and plans to follow in the footsteps of her renowned-journalist father. But when he announces they’re moving to Athens for six months so he can work on an important new story, she's devastated— he must have an ulterior motive. See, when Zona's mother married an American, her huge Greek family cut off contact. But Zona never knew her mom, and now she’s supposed to uproot her entire life and meet possibly hostile relatives on their turf? Thanks... but no thanks.
In the vein of Anna and the French Kiss, Zona navigates a series of hilarious escapades, eye-opening revelations, and unexpected reunions in a foreign country—all while documenting the trip through one-of-a-kind commentary.

I think this sounds like such a fun story. I like the setting and I think it would be a great book to pick up when I want something light and humorous. Plus I enjoy travel fiction :)
Ohh! I guess I need to read Me Before You sooner than later if the sequel is coming out soon. I just read One Plus One (my first Moyes book) and I really enjoyed it. I am also looking forward to Sophomore Year...love the setting too...perfect as a spring break/beach read! Great picks, Christina!
ReplyDeleteOh, wow, these both look good...and I am eager to get After You as well. Loved Me Before You. Thanks for sharing...and for visiting my blog.
