Waiting on Wednesday


When Bee woke up, there was a girl standing in her room. "You are me," the girl said. Then she was gone. I am a thirteen-year-old double Gemini. I get bad grades, write poetry with my left hand, dance in my room, surf the net. I Google images of the tattoos my mom won't let me get. . . But my world belongs to someone else. Someone who lives below the concrete of Los Angeles, someone with wild eyes and twigs in her hair.And I think she wants her life back.

I'm going to be perfectly honest-I started looking at this book because of the cover. I love this cover. It's so graphically cool. Then, I read the description, and I got really excited. It sounds really crazy, a little Vonnegut influenced, and totally enthralling. I'm going to cross my fingers that the content lives up to the cover.

The cover is cool. But the blurb sounds wicked! I want to read this.
