WoW - January 19th

WoW is weekly meme hosted at Breaking the Spine that I do every week.  It stands for Waiting on Wednesday, and the point is to share what book you're most looking forward to that week.  This week, I can't wait for Ripple, by Mandy Hubbard.

Summary (from Goodreads):  Lexi is cursed with a dark secret. The water calls to her, draws her in, forces her to sing her deadly song to unsuspecting victims. If she succumbs, she kills. If she doesn’t, the pain is unbearable. To keep herself and those she cares about safe, she shuts herself off, refusing to make friends or fall in love—again. Because the last time she fell in love with a boy, he ended up dead.

Then Lexi meets Cole. Against her better judgment, she finds herself opening up again, falling in love when she knows she shouldn’t. But when she’s offered the chance to finally live a normal life, she learns that the price she must pay to be free of her curse is giving him up. 



Why do I want to read this book?  Well, it sounds a little creepy with the whole water calling and making her sing, but that sounds fun too.  It also has the interesting problem of her falling in love with a guy who she'll probably end up killing.  It just sounds like a really fun read!
