WAITING ON WEDNESDAY


"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's WoW selection is...

GlimmerWhat if you forgot your identity and had to rely on other people to tell you who you were?

And what if to discover your true self, you first had to unravel a mystery so big and terrifying you were not sure you’d survive solving it?

When Marshall and Elyse wake up in each other’s arms with zero memory of how they got there or who they are, it’s the start of a long journey through their separate pasts and shared future.

Terrified by their amnesia, the two make a pact to work together to find the answers that could jog their missing memories. As they piece together clues, they discover they’re in the idyllic mountain resort town of Summer Falls, where everyone seems mysteriously happy, but as Marshall and Elyse quickly learn, darkness lurks beneath the town’s perfect facade. Not only is the town haunted by sinister ghosts, but none of its living inhabitants retain bad memories of anything—not the death of Marshall’s mom, not the hidden shame in Elyse’s family, not even the day-to-day anguish of high school.

Lonely in this world of happy zombies, Marsh and Elyse fall into an intense relationship...but the secrets they uncover could be the death of this growing love—and the death of everyone, and everything, they love in Summer Falls.  ~ From GoodReads


Why I'm Waiting...

Geez, where do I begin? Glimmer wasn't even on my radar until I received a surprise copy from Harper, and boy am I glad I did! This book has amnesia, ghosts, and zombies. Yeah. This should be a great ride!

You can pre-order Glimmer at:
Barnes & Noble  |  AmazonBook Depository

  1. I'm waiting on this one too. Like I told you before I just love amnesiac plot lines. Don't know why really lol but I just love characters discovering their life secrets and learning who they are. This book always seems to have a creepy mystery as well.

  7. Okay, "happy zombies" is the operative phrase that stands out to me here. LOL! I never thought I'd see those two words side by side, EVER. This sounds like a totally cool book, with amnesia, life-threatening journeys, and, of course, happy zombies! Isn't this one coming out soon?
