Waiting on Wednesday is held over at Breaking the Spine, and it highlights the books bloggers are hanging out for. This week, my choice is: Into White
This is going to be out much, much later in the year, but I’m going to rec it now because it has such potential and I hope the author does the topic justice. This is the blurb:
Sixteen-year-old Latoya Williams, who is black, attends a mostly white high school in the Bible Belt. In a moment of desperation, she prays for the power to change her race and wakes up white.
That’s kind of it by now! But I hope it might start getting onto Netgalley soon enough?
Hm, I think this could go either way. I hope you get to read, and enjoy, it soon. Thanks for sharing, and happy Wednesday. 🙂
Here’s my WoW
You’re right, it could go either way. It really does depend on the author in this. I havenn’t read anything by her before either.
Definitely has the potential to be controversial. Hope the author does a good job on it. Wondering what year it will be set in?
That is a good point, Laura, I couldn’t find out when it was going to be set. I hope the author treats this topic well too, it’s a tough one.
Hmmm…what an interesting concept. I may definitely check this out, especially once I heard a little bit more about it. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
I thought so too Barb! I’m hoping more info comes out soon enough
This one sounds great! I think I’ve seen it before on Goodreads, I’m not sure. I’m definitely adding that one to my to read list if it isn’t on there already. Great pick!
I hope it is too! *crosses fingers*
I saw this on NG recently and thought it wounded very interesting!
my WoW
Me too Eva! Here’s hoping!!
Wow this is such an interesting topic! I definitely have to put that on my watch list now. 🙂
I hope it lives up to it’s potential! Thanks for coming by!
