Waiting on Wednesday (#19): Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by April Genevieve Tucholke


"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, I'm featuring:

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea (Between, #1)

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by April Genevieve Tucholke
Book One of the Between series
Publisher: Dial
Publication Date: August 15, 2013

Summary (from Goodreads):

You stop fearing the devil when you’re holding his hand…

Nothing much exciting rolls through Violet White’s sleepy, seaside town…until River West comes along. River rents the guesthouse behind Violet’s crumbling estate, and as eerie, grim things start to happen, Violet begins to wonder about the boy living in her backyard. Is River just a crooked-smiling liar with pretty eyes and a mysterious past? Or could he be something more? Violet’s grandmother always warned her about the Devil, but she never said he could be a dark-haired boy who takes naps in the sun, who likes coffee, who kisses you in a cemetery...who makes you want to kiss back. Violet’s already so knee-deep in love, she can’t see straight. And that’s just how River likes it.


THIS BOOK. 

It is EASILY my most anticipated novel of 2013. I have HIGH expectations for it. I first met April at the Friday the Thirteeners blog HERE, and I have been dying to read the book ever since that day. 

Plus, LOOK AT THE COVER! 

That is all.

I was not lucky enough to get an ARC from Penguin, BUT, a good bloggy friend of mine did, and she is willing to let me borrow it! SQUEE!

So! What are the masses clamoring for this week? :)

  9. I think I picked this as a WOW several months ago, so I'm right there with you! Can't wait to read it. I was also turned down for this title (why????) so I guess I'll have to wait and read it when it comes out. Great choice!

    Here's my WOW.
