WoW [71]

Waiting on Wednesday [WoW] is a weekly event hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.

Driftwood by Elizabeth Dutton
Expected Publication: November 4, 2014
Publisher: Skyhorse Publishing

Synopsis...
How far would you go for your family? A smart and funny debut about road trips, music, love, and California for fans of The Perks of Being A Wallflower, Run River and Killing Yourself to Live.

Los Angeles, California: Clem Jasper is a trust fund kid with a world famous rock musician for a father. When he dies suddenly (playing ping pong) she discovers he’s left her a strange legacy—a series of letters that take her on a mysterious road trip around California. Ignoring her aunt’s suggestion that she pitch the trip as a reality show, she embarks on her own—to discover just what it was that her father meant her to find. What secret could be so powerful that he had to die before telling her?

Why I Can’t Wait…
I love a road trip book + music = SOLD!

  2. I also really like the sound of this one. A personal road-trip with letters from your father to guide you. I'm wondering what's in store for Clem. Nice pick!

    My WoW pick :)

  5. This one sounds great - road trip books are the best, especially for the summer (though I just noticed that this is released in the winter).

    Thanks for sharing :)
