WWW Wednesdays (61) / Waiting on Wednesday (61): Exile

To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…

• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?







Currently Reading:

Boys Don't Knit by T.S Eaton


Finished Reading:
Little Celeste by Dawn McNiff (review here) and I Found You by Jane Lark (review here). I also had a chance reading Operation: Breaking the Casanova's Heart by Aly Almario, a story from Wattpad written by a Filipino amateur author and was now published. I'm not sure whether I'd write a review here (it will be my first--with a Filipino book, I mean). We'll see.




Read Next:
I am very much excited to read This Girl by Colleen Hoover next. I love this series and author so much. Can't wait!







Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, originally started by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that highlights upcoming book releases everyone is waiting on.

Exile
by Kevin Emerson

Expected publication: April 29th 2014 by Katherine Tegen Books

Blurb (Goodreads):
Catherine Summer Carlson knows how to manage bands like a professional—she’s a student at the PopArts Academy at Mount Hope High, where rock legends Allegiance to North got their start. Summer knows that falling for the lead singer of her latest band is the least professional thing a manager can do. But Caleb Daniels isn’t an ordinary band boy—he’s a hot, dreamy, sweet-singing, exiled-from-his-old-band, possibly-with-a-deep-dark-side band boy. And he can do that thing. That thing when someone sings a song and it inhabits you, possesses you, and moves you like a marionette to its will.

Summer also finds herself at the center of a mystery she never saw coming. When Caleb reveals a secret about his long-lost father, one band’s past becomes another’s present, and Summer finds it harder and harder to be both band manager and girlfriend. She knows what the well-mannered Catherine side of her would do, but she also knows what her heart is telling her. Maybe it’s time to accept who she really is, even if it means becoming an exile herself. . . .


On sale in April 2014, Kevin Emerson’s EXILE is a witty and passionate ode to love, rock and roll, and the freedom that comes in the moment when somebody believes in you, even if you’re not quite ready to believe in yourself.




I love music-related books and I wouldn't miss this one.

  1. I don't think I've ever heard of this book, I don't usually read much contemporary fiction but it sounds great. Hope you get to read it soon :)

    My WoW!

  4. Not long now! I'm always anxious with music themed books, because I always seem to find them a bit cheesy, but we'll see. :)

    Here's mine

    1. Yep, not long. But I'm also afraid I wouldn't get the books that I wanted since I'm broke and I still have a pending list of to-buy. XD
      Hope you'd get to try music-themed books one day and enjoy. They're one of my faves. ;)

  7. Sounds like an interesting book. I can't say that I've read many books that center around bands, other than Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist. Thanks for sharing and for checking out my WoW!

    1. Hope you get to read more music-themed books, then. If you have time, check out Thoughtless by S.C Stephens. It has music, but I also have to warn you that it's also NA with some hot scenes. ;)

  10. I'm really liking the synopsis of the book and the cover. I've heard of other books that are music-related, but I haven't had to chance to read them. I hope you enjoy the book though and thanks for stopping by my blog today :D
