WoW Unbreak My Heart by Melissa Walker @bwkids @melissacwalker

May 2, 2012 By Mary

“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.

This week’s pre-publication “can’t-wait-to-read” selection is:

Book Description

Publication Date: May 22, 2012
Sophomore year broke Clementine Williams’ heart. She fell for her best friend’s boyfriend and long story short: he’s excused, but Clem is vilified and she heads into summer with zero social life. Enter her parents’ plan to spend the summer on their sailboat. Normally the idea of being stuck on a tiny boat with her parents and little sister would make Clem break out in hives, but floating away sounds pretty good right now. Then she meets James at one of their first stops along the river. He and his dad are sailing for the summer and he’s just the distraction Clem needs. Can he break down Clem’s walls and heal her broken heart? Told in alternating chapters that chronicle the year that broke Clem’s heart and the summer that healed it, Unbreak My Heart is a wonderful dual love story that fans of Sarah Dessen, Deb Caletti, and Susane Colasanti will flock to.

    Unbreak My Heart is pretty sweet contemporary YA. I had a chance to read an ARC and thought it was perfect summer reading: laid back, contemplative, and just a little bit romantic.

    Hope you like it!

    I like books told in alternating time-chapters, because they always lead up to the most interesting turning points. Good luck on reading more contemporary! If you’re ever looking for more stuff to read, my blog is pretty much 90% contemporary.

    I really like the cover of this one! The story sounds like a nice summer read too – alternating chapters could really help switch it up! I hope you enjoy reading it.
