On My Wishlist (60)

Back from hiatus! In On My Wishlist I spotlight books that I'm really looking forward to. I know there's a meme Waiting on Wednesday and there even are others, but I'm going to rebel and do it how I want it (hehe). I'll feature the synopsis as posted on Goodreads and put a linkie to the Goodreads page of the book. This week: Split Second by Kasie West.



Split Second by Kasie West
Expected publication date: February 11th, 2014

Synopsis
Life can change in a split second.

Addie hardly recognizes her life since her parents divorced. Her boyfriend used her. Her best friend betrayed her. She can’t believe this is the future she chose. On top of that, her ability is acting up. She’s always been able to Search the future when presented with a choice. Now she can manipulate and slow down time, too... but not without a price.

When Addie’s dad invites her to spend her winter break with him, she jumps at the chance to escape into the Norm world of Dallas, Texas. There she meets the handsome and achingly familiar Trevor. He’s a virtual stranger to her, so why does her heart do a funny flip every time she sees him? But after witnessing secrets that were supposed to stay hidden, Trevor quickly seems more suspicious of Addie than interested in her. And she has an inexplicable desire to change that.

Meanwhile, her best friend, Laila, has a secret of her own: she can restore Addie’s memories... once she learns how. But there are powerful people who don’t want to see this happen. Desperate, Laila tries to manipulate Connor, a brooding bad boy from school—but he seems to be the only boy in the Compound immune to her charms. And the only one who can help her.

As Addie and Laila frantically attempt to retrieve the lost memories, Addie must piece together a world she thought she knew before she loses the love she nearly forgot... and a future that could change everything.

SPLIT SECOND! SPLIT FREAKING SECOND! *muppet arms* Guys, I feel like I've been waiting FOREVER for this book to be published. People with ARCs gave me serious book envy.. And now it's almost here! IT'S ALMOST HERE I CAN'T EVEN!!! Now that I'm typing this I'm wondering if I did end up preordering it.. Did I? I'm pretty sure I did. Better make sure, though, so I can spend my time posting by the intercom in the hope my mailman brings me my copy.

(If you haven't read Pivot Point yet, I recommend you do. It's full of alternate reality stuff and swoony boys. Trust me on this.)
